Chapter 22, Problem 22.26PE

(Bin packing with smallest object first) The bin packing problem is to pack the objects of various weights into containers. Assume each container can hold a maximum of 10 pounds. The program uses an algorithm that places an object with the smallest weight into the first bin in which it would fit. Your program should prompt the user to enter the total number of objects and the weight of each object. The program displays the total number of containers needed to pack the objects, and the contents of each container. Here is a sample run of the program:

Enter the number of objects: 6

Enter the weights of the objects: 7 5 2 3 5 8 Chapter 22, Problem 22.26PE, (Bin packing with smallest object first) The bin packing problem is to pack the objects of various

Container 1 contains objects with weight 2 3 5

Container 2 contains objects with weight 5

Container 3 contains objects with weight 7

Container 4 contains objects with weight 8

Does this program produce an optimal solution, that is, finding the minimum number of containers to pack the objects?

For each of the following, decide whether the claim is True or False and select the True ones: Suppose we discover that the 3SAT can be solved in worst-case cubic time. Then it would mean that all problems in NP can also be solved in cubic time. If a problem can be solved using Dynamic Programming, then it is not NP-complete. Suppose X and Y are two NP-complete problems. Then, there must be a polynomial-time reduction from X to Y and also one from Y to X.
