your algorithm is right
but your code is wrong

for(i=0;i<=30000 && flag;i++) should be
for(i=30000;i+1 && flag;i-- ) or use additional array
the reason is
if now data is 4 and u[2] is true
then u[6] is true
but then i = 6 , your code will make u[10] is true
it means 4+4+2
sorry for my poor english
hope it helps

The problem says that A-sequence is a sequence of positive integers ai satisfying 1 ≤ a1 < a2 < a3 < ... and every ak of the sequence is not the sum of two or more distinct earlier terms of the sequence.

So if the sequence have two or more equal value, the sequence is not A-sequence.

Case #7: 975 356 405 198 198 212 250 759 890
This is not an A-sequence.

In above case you can see that the value 198 is appear twice.

Hi HASAN_AI

4 336 34 -> this sequence is an A-sequence because we can arrange
this sequence become 4 34 336 that satisfying 1 ≤ a1 < a2 < a3
and every ak of the sequence is not the sum of two or more distinct earlier terms of the sequence.

So if the input :

2 2 1

You should output :

Case #1: 2 1
This is an A-sequence.

My AC code says "2 2 1" is not an A sequence :o

To see if some numbers make some SUM , use DP ! :) It is a standart algorithm - making of sum from some coins. Ask if you have any further questions:)

Hi RONI_DU,

15 387 377 582 604 280 171 806 295 334 409 241 414 55 495 984
This is not an A-sequence.

because the problem says that A-sequence is a sequence of positive integers ai satisfying 1 ≤ a1 < a2 < a3 < ... and every ak of the sequence is not the sum of two or more distinct earlier terms of the sequence.

241 + 334 + 409 = 984

Hi Fixxxer,

because both you and me can get AC with different output for the input :

2 2 1

so we can assume that there is no input like that (the input is invalid).

Yesterday I got Accepted on this problem without sorting input sequence, so I can assume, that sorting isn't necessary. It implies, that every sequence in which order of elements after sorting is different from original order isn't A-Sequence.

Best regards
DM
If you really want to get Accepted, try to think about possible, and after that - about impossible ... and you'll get, what you want ....

I don't think so. If sorting is allowed then 8, 4, 1, 2 is A- sequence as if sort it it becomes 1, 2, 4, 8 which meet all criteria.

But I think In case of sequence the given order matters. So you can't sort the given data. What do you think??? :o
