In how many ways a positive number X can be represented as a sum of Y positive integer numbers and how to find them?

Eg 1: 7 (X) can be represented as a sum of 2 (Y) numbers in following way: (3+4), (2+5), (1+6).

Eg 2: 7 (X) can be represented as a sum of 3 (Y) numbers in following way: (1+1+5), (1+2+4), (1+3+3), (2+2+3).

What happens when p = 1 here.
