Subset summing

I have a problem related to the subset sum problem and am wondering if the differences make it easier, i.e. solvable in a reasonable amount of time. Given a value V, a set size L, and a sequence of numbers [1,N] S, how many size L subsets of S sum to less than V? This is different than the subset sum problem in three ways: I care h...

Summing values in one-line comma delimited file.

There are no newlines, except one at the end of file. And now, I have to sum all values that are there. I expect the final result to be quite big, but if I'd sum it in C++,...
