Find minimum number of coins that make a given value
- Task
Find and show here on this page the minimum number of coins that can make a value of 988.
Available coins are: 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200.
The coins that would be dispensed are:
four coins of 200 one coin of 100 one coin of 50 one coin of 20 one coin of 10 one coin of 5 one coin of 2 one coin of 1
Factor
<lang factor>USING: assocs kernel math math.order prettyprint sorting ;

[ >=< ] sort [ /mod swap ] zip-with nip ;
988 { 1 2 5 10 20 50 100 200 } make-change .</lang>
- Output:

Long version
Using a linear optimizer for this is serious overkill, but why not? <lang julia>using JuMP, GLPK
model = Model(GLPK.Optimizer) @variable(model, ones, Int) @variable(model, twos, Int) @variable(model, fives, Int) @variable(model, tens, Int) @variable(model, twenties, Int) @variable(model, fifties, Int) @variable(model, onehundreds, Int) @variable(model, twohundreds, Int) @constraint(model, ones >= 0) @constraint(model, twos >= 0) @constraint(model, fives >= 0) @constraint(model, tens >= 0) @constraint(model, twenties >= 0) @constraint(model, fifties >= 0) @constraint(model, onehundreds >= 0) @constraint(model, twohundreds >= 0) @constraint(model, 988 == 1ones +2twos + 5fives + 10tens + 20twenties + 50fifties + 100onehundreds + 200twohundreds)
@objective(model, Min, ones + twos + fives + tens + twenties + fifties + onehundreds + twohundreds)
optimize!(model) println("Optimized total coins: ", objective_value(model)) for val in [ones, twos, fives, tens, twenties, fifties, onehundreds, twohundreds]
println("Value of ", string(val), " is ", value(val))
end
</lang>
- Output:
Optimized total coins: 11.0 Value of ones is 1.0 Value of twos is 1.0 Value of fives is 1.0 Value of tens is 1.0 Value of twenties is 1.0 Value of fifties is 1.0 Value of onehundreds is 1.0 Value of twohundreds is 4.0
