  2. Greedy algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm

    Greedy algorithms determine the minimum number of coins to give while making change. These are the steps most people would take to emulate a greedy algorithm to represent 36 cents using only coins with values {1, 5, 10, 20}. The coin of the highest value, less than the remaining change owed, is the local optimum.

  3. Change-making problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change-making_problem

    One variation of this problem assumes that the people making change will use the "greedy algorithm" for making change, even when that requires more than the minimum number of coins. Most current currencies use a 1-2-5 series , but some other set of denominations would require fewer denominations of coins or a smaller average number of coins to ...

  4. Greedy number partitioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_number_partitioning

    In computer science, greedy number partitioning is a class of greedy algorithms for multiway number partitioning. The input to the algorithm is a set S of numbers, and a parameter k. The required output is a partition of S into k subsets, such that the sums in the subsets are as nearly equal as possible. Greedy algorithms process the numbers ...

  5. Metric k-center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_k-center

    The greedy pure algorithm (or Gr) follows the core idea of greedy algorithms: to take optimal local decisions. In the case of the vertex k-center problem, the optimal local decision consists in selecting each center in such a way that the size of the solution (covering radius) is minimum at each iteration. In other words, the first center ...

  6. Partition problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_problem

    Algorithms developed for multiway number partitioning include: The pseudopolynomial time number partitioning takes () memory, where m is the largest number in the input. The Complete Greedy Algorithm (CGA) considers all partitions by constructing a binary tree. Each level in the tree corresponds to an input number, where the root corresponds to ...

  7. Kruskal's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal's_algorithm

    Kruskal's algorithm [1] finds a minimum spanning forest of an undirected edge-weighted graph.If the graph is connected, it finds a minimum spanning tree.It is a greedy algorithm that in each step adds to the forest the lowest-weight edge that will not form a cycle. [2]

  9. DSatur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSatur

    Similarly to the greedy colouring algorithm, DSatur colours the vertices of a graph one after another, adding a previously unused colour when needed. Once a new vertex has been coloured, the algorithm determines which of the remaining uncoloured vertices has the highest number of colours in its neighbourhood and colours this vertex next.
