## Problem Statement

Given a set of positive numbers, determine if there exists a subset whose sum is equal to a given number 'S'.

### Example 1:
```
Input: {1, 2, 3, 7}, S=6
Output: True
The given set has a subset whose sum is '6': {1, 2, 3}
```
### Example 2:
```
Input: {1, 2, 7, 1, 5}, S=10
Output: True
The given set has a subset whose sum is '10': {1, 2, 7}
```
### Example 3:
```
Input: {1, 3, 4, 8}, S=6
Output: False
The given set does not have any subset whose sum is equal to '6'.
```

## Basic Solution
This problem follows the **0/1 Knapsack pattern** and is quite similar to
