Default Reverse Sum


Does anyone know if there is a way of having a reverse sum calculate in
excel?

For example, instead of 1+1+2=4, I would like to type '4' into a cell
and have options come back such as 2+2, 1+1+2, 3+1...

Thanks.

Default Reverse Sum

For a number like 50, are you looking to list all 204,226 "Integer
Partitions", or just a few at random?

Is that really the number of partitions, or were you just making a point? If
so, how did you calculate it?
