You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
From Wikipedia:
The McNuggets version of the coin problem was introduced by Henri Picciotto, who included it in his algebra textbook co-authored with Anita Wah. Picciotto thought of the application in the 1980s while dining with his son at McDonald's, working the problem out on a napkin. A McNugget number is the total number of McDonald's Chicken McNuggets in any number of boxes. In the United Kingdom, the original boxes (prior to the introduction of the Happy Meal-sized nugget boxes) were of 6, 9, and 20 nuggets.
- Task
Calculate (from 0 up to a limit of 100) the largest non-McNuggets number (a number n which cannot be expressed with 6x + 9y + 20z = n where x, y and z are natural numbers).

<lang 11l>V nuggets = Set(0..100) L(s, n, t) cart_product(0 .. 100 I/ 6,
0 .. 100 I/ 9,
0 .. 100 I/ 20)
nuggets.discard(6*s + 9*n + 20*t)
print(max(nuggets))</lang>

J
Brute force solution: calculate all pure (just one kind of box) McNugget numbers which do not exceed 100, then compute all possible sums, and then remove those from the list of numbers up to 100 (which is obviously a McNugget number), then find the largest number remaining:
<lang J> >./(i.100)-.,+/&>{(* i.@>.@%~&101)&.>6 9 20 43</lang>
Technically, we could have used 100 in place of 101 when we were finding how many pure McNugget numbers were in each series (because 100 is obviously a McNugget number), but it's not like that's a problem, either.

for (int i = 0; i < numSizes; i++) {
int curSize = SIZES[i];
if ((total + curSize) > MAX_TOTAL) {
// Reset to zero and go to the next box size
total -= counts[i] * curSize;
counts[i] = 0;
}
else {
// Adding a box of this size still keeps the total at or below the maximum

It's a simple solution done on the command line: <lang python>>>> from itertools import product >>> nuggets = set(range(101)) >>> for s, n, t in product(range(100//6+1), range(100//9+1), range(100//20+1)): nuggets.discard(6*s + 9*n + 20*t)
>>> max(nuggets)
43
>>> </lang>
Single expression version (expect to be slower, however no noticeable difference on a Celeron B820 and haven't benchmarked): <lang python>>>> from itertools import product >>> max(x for x in range(100+1) if x not in ...

List monad
A composition of pure functions, including dropwhile, which shows a more verbose and unwieldy (de-sugared) route to list comprehension, and reveals the underlying mechanics of what the (compact and elegant) built-in syntax expresses. May help to build intuition for confident use of the latter.
Note that the innermost function wraps its results in a (potentially empty) list. The resulting list of lists, some empty, is then flattened by the concatenation component of bind.
<lang python>mcNuggets list monad
from itertools import (chain, dropwhile)

R
Assuming that the natural numbers start at 0.
There are two natural approaches. The first is to generate all valid x, y, and z and then apply the function: <lang r>allInputs<-expand.grid(x=0:(100%/%6),y=0:(100%/%9),z=0:(100%/%20)) mcNuggets<-do.call(function(x,y,z) 6*x + 9*y + 20*z, allInputs)</lang> The second is to find all of the valid 6x, 9y, and 20z, and then sum them: <lang r>mcNuggets2<-rowSums(expand.grid(seq(0,100,6),seq(0,100,9),seq(0,100,20)))</lang> Either way, we get identical results, as checked by: <lang r>all(mcNuggets==mcNuggets2)</lang> For our final answer, note that our choice to remove values from the vector 0:100 means our outputs will already be sorted, unique, and no greater than 100. <lang r>results<-setdiff(0:100,mcNuggets) cat("The non-McNuggets numbers that are no greater than 100 are:",results,"\nThe largest is",max(results),"\n")</lang> Ultimately, this can be done in one line: <lang r>max(setdiff(0:100,rowSums(expand.grid(seq(0,100,6),seq(0,100,9),seq(0,100,20)))))</lang>

No hard coded limits, no hard coded values. General purpose 3 value solver. Count values may be any 3 different positive integers, in any order, that are relatively prime.
Finds the smallest count value, then looks for the first run of consecutive count totals able to be generated, that is at least the length of the smallest count size. From then on, every number can be generated by simply adding multiples of the minimum count to each of the totals in that run.

REXX
This REXX version generalizes the problem (does not depend on fixed meal sizes), and also checks for:
- a meal that doesn't include McNuggets (in other words, zero nuggets)
- a meal size that includes a double order of nuggets
- a meal size that includes a single nugget (which means, no largest McNugget number)
- excludes meals that have a multiple order of nuggets
- automatically computes the high value algebraically instead of using 100.
