I have problem with solve the specific knapsack algorithm problem. Is there someone who give me some tips or help me? I solved it by Brute Force method but the execute time is very long (I checked all possible combinations and take the best solution - it works). I need to solve it by Dynamic Programming or Greedy Algorithm (but better by DP). I read about it a lot and I can't find the solution with it ;/ It is hard exercise. HERE IS description of my exercise

2Post the text of your description and the tests as text, here in your question. But even with those, you need to narrow down what you are asking to a specific question: "how to I do it" isn't specific. – Andy Turner Nov 07 '16 at 21:55

Please, post your code, the errors you are facing and what exactly is the issue you are facing. For a more generic guideline, take a look at [my answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/40475391/2679529). – marcelovca90 Nov 07 '16 at 21:57

There are a few good tutorials on the internet that explain the Knapsack problem thoroughly.
More specifically, I would recommend this specific one, where the problem and the DP-approach is entirely explained, including the solution in three different languages (including Java).
// A Dynamic Programming based solution for 0-1 Knapsack problem
class Knapsack
{
// A utility function that returns maximum of two integers
static int max(int a, int b) { return (a > b)? a : b; }
// Returns the maximum value that can be put in a knapsack of capacity W
static int knapSack(int W, int wt[], int val[], int n)
{
int i, w;
int K[][] = new int[n+1][W+1];
// Build table K[][] in bottom up manner
for (i = 0; i <= n; i++)
{
for (w = 0; w <= W; w++)
{
if (i==0 || w==0)
K[i][w] = 0;
else if (wt[i-1] <= w)
K[i][w] = max(val[i-1] + K[i-1][w-wt[i-1]], K[i-1][w]);
else
K[i][w] = K[i-1][w];
}
}
return K[n][W];
}
// Driver program to test above function
public static void main(String args[])
{
int val[] = new int[]{60, 100, 120};
int wt[] = new int[]{10, 20, 30};
int W = 50;
int n = val.length;
System.out.println(knapSack(W, wt, val, n));
}
}

Man, I read it. I created a table N items / W weights but what should do now? I have all combinations but how I can find the best solution when I am going by last indexes on this table it doesnt help me ;s – Zaroos77 Nov 07 '16 at 22:06
