1.**Sort the Input:** Sort the `nums` array to handle duplicates easily.

2.**Backtracking:** Use backtracking to generate subsets.
39
-
3.**Avoid Duplicates:** Skip duplicates by checking if the current element is the same as the previous element and the previous element was not included in the current subset.

# Generating All Unique Subsets
44
-
45
-
This solution defines a class `Solution` containing a method `subsetsWithDup` which generates all possible unique subsets for a given list of numbers, including handling duplicates.

47
-
## Implementation Steps
48
-
49
-
### Step 1: Define the `Solution` Class
50
-
51
-
Define a class `Solution` containing a method `subsetsWithDup` which takes a list of integers `nums` as input and returns a list of lists of integers.
52
-
53
-
### Step 2: Sort the Input List
54
-
55
-
Sort the `nums` list to handle duplicates easily.
56
-
57
-
### Step 3: Initialize Result List
58
-
59
-
Initialize an empty list called `result` to store the generated subsets.
60
-
61
-
### Step 4: Define the Backtracking Function
62
-
63
-
Define a function called `backtrack` which takes two parameters: `start` (the current index in `nums`) and `path` (the current subset being generated).
64
-
65
-
### Step 5: Append the Current Path
66
-
67
-
Append the current `path` to the `result`.
68
-
69
-
### Step 6: Loop Through the Elements
70
-
71
-
Loop through each element in `nums` starting from the `start` index:
72
-
- If the current element is the same as the previous element and the previous element was not included in the current path, skip it to avoid duplicates.
73
-
- Otherwise, include the current element in the path and recursively call the `backtrack` function with the next index.

### Step 7: Call the Backtrack Function
35
+
### Approach Overview
36
+
The problem can be solved using backtracking. To handle duplicates, we need to sort the array first and then ensure that we do not include the same element twice in the same position within the subset.
76
37
77
-
Initially call the `backtrack` function with `start` set to 0 and an empty `path`.

### Step 8: Return Result
40
+
1.**Sort the Input Array**:
41
+
- Sorting helps in easily skipping duplicates.
42
+
43
+
2.**Backtracking Function**:
44
+
- Use a helper function to generate all subsets.
45
+
- Skip over duplicate elements by checking the previous element in the sorted array.
80
46
81
-
Return the `result` list.
47
+
3.**Generate Subsets**:
48
+
- Initialize an empty list to store all subsets.
49
+
- Start backtracking from the first index.
82
50
83
-
This algorithm generates all possible unique subsets for a given list of numbers by using backtracking and handling duplicates by sorting the input list and skipping duplicate elements appropriately.
