Default Bin Packing Problem (1DBPP)


The two other algorithms I can think as follows

1) Try every possibility
2) Make a model of the problem. Run the model 1000 times using
random inputs (amount of OJ) and get the results. Then change
parameters (size of containers) and run the model again. Repeat
process. The solution is the results with the optimum results.


I took a Gradute Engineering course on modeling where the teacher said
modeling is sometimes the only method to solve complicated statistical
problems.
