for instance
input: output:
10 1+2+3+4
11 5+6
22 4+5+6+7
23 11+12

Answer 1

Hop that the following code will help you to do this:

int inputNum = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
List<int> possibleValues = new List<int>();
for (int i = 1; i <= inputNum / 2; i++)
{
possibleValues.Clear();
for (int j = i; j <= (inputNum / 2)+1; j++)
{
possibleValues.Add(j);
if (possibleValues.Sum() >= inputNum)
break;
}
if (possibleValues.Sum() == inputNum)
break;
}
Console.WriteLine("Result : {0}", String.Join("+", possibleValues));
Console.ReadKey();

You need to include `System.Collections.Generic;` for List and `
using System.Linq;` for extension method Sum
