knapsack problem python recursive code example
Example: python 0-1 kanpsack
#Returns the maximum value that can be stored by the bag
def knapSack(W, wt, val, n):
# initial conditions
if n == 0 or W == 0 :
return 0
# If weight is higher than capacity then it is not included
if (wt[n-1] > W):
return knapSack(W, wt, val, n-1)
# return either nth item being included or not
else:
return max(val[n-1] + knapSack(W-wt[n-1], wt, val, n-1),
knapSack(W, wt, val, n-1))
# To test above function
val = [50,100,150,200]
wt = [8,16,32,40]
W = 64
n = len(val)
print (knapSack(W, wt, val, n))
