3Sum With Multiplicity

Given an integer array arr, and an integer target, return the number of tuples i, j, k such that i < j < k and arr[i] + arr[j] + arr[k] == target.

As the answer can be very large, return it modulo 109 + 7.

Example 1:

Input: arr = [1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5], target = 8
Output: 20
Explanation:
Enumerating by the values (arr[i], arr[j], arr[k]):
(1, 2, 5) occurs 8 times;
(1, 3, 4) occurs 8 times;
(2, 2, 4) occurs 2 times;
(2, 3, 3) occurs 2 times.

Example 2:

Input: arr = [1,1,2,2,2,2], target = 5
Output: 12
Explanation:
arr[i] = 1, arr[j] = arr[k] = 2 occurs 12 times:
We choose one 1 from [1,1] in 2 ways,
and two 2s from [2,2,2,2] in 6 ways.

Example 3:

Input: arr = [2,1,3], target = 6
Output: 1
Explanation: (1, 2, 3) occured one time in the array so we return 1.

Constraints:

  • 3 <= arr.length <= 3000
  • 0 <= arr[i] <= 100
  • 0 <= target <= 300

SOLUTION:

class Solution:
    def threeSumMulti(self, arr: List[int], target: int) -> int:
        d = [0] * 300
        res = 0
        for i, el in enumerate(arr):
            res += d[target - el] if target - el >= 0 else 0
            for j in range(i):
                d[el + arr[j]] += 1
        return res % (10 ** 9 + 7)
