combination of integer numbers

I need to make distibution of 15 apples among 4 person [a b c d],
each person can have a value betwwen 0-15. and summation always (a+b+c+d=15)
so how can i generate the matrix for all possible combinantion
so i eapect matrix as
a = [1 14 0 0
0 0 0 15
3 6 2 4

One approach is to ndgrid() all possible combinations, and then check those to find the ones that add up to the right number.
thanks. however i couldn't manage to do it

I would download John D'Errico's partitions function, and then I believe your answer is
p = partitions(15,[1 1 1 1])

tahnks. It look great code. but i coulnt mange to run correctly. i will try again to adapt it
Do you mean that the code will not work for you, or that you do not get the result you expect?
(FYI, Walter's solution and this one give the same result.)
first tahnks for your feedback
to answer you: i could not mange to run the code
i will try to make exampele easier
4 apples, 2 person. so ALL combinations are
[0 4
1 3
2 2
3 1
4 0]
if 4 apples , 3 persons. combination are
[0 0 4
0 1 3
0 2 2
0 3 1
0 4 0
1 0 3
1 1 2
1 2 1
1 3 0
2 0 2
2 1 1
2 2 0
3 0 1
3 1 0
4 0 0]
I don't think an easier example was needed, but I can verify that
partitions(4,[1 1 1])
gives the same answer (not necessarily in the same row order).
I'm not sure why you couldn't run the code. Did you do the following?
  • go to the link I uploaded
  • click on the download button to get the files
  • unzip the files
  • put the partitions.m file in your path so that you can run it
thanks a lot
it is working perfect
the problem that i just copied the code from webpage and i didnt download file

[Ag, Bg, Cg, Dg] = ndgrid(0:15);
Eg = [Ag(:), Bg(:), Cg(:), Dg(:)];
mask = sum(Eg,2) == 15;
selected = Eg(mask,:);
a = selected(:,1);
b = selected(:,2);
c = selected(:,3);
d = selected(:,4);
