Program to Implement KMP Algorithm in Java

The Knuth–Morris–Pratt string searching algorithm (or KMP algorithm) searches for occurrences of a “word” W within a main “text string” S by employing the observation that when a mismatch occurs, the word itself embodies sufficient information to determine where the next match could begin, thus bypassing re-examination of previously matched characters.

Implementing 0-1 Knapsack in Java

The knapsack problem or rucksack problem is a problem in combinatorial optimization: Given a set of items, each with a mass and a value, determine the number of each item to include in a collection so that the total weight is less than or equal to a given limit and the total value is as large as possible.

In 0-1 Knapsack, the restriction is that, one cannot select fraction of any item. He/She must select either whole item or try with alternate one.
