... An instance of the Subset Sum problem is a pair (S, t), where S = {x1 , x2 , ..., xn } is a set of positive integers and t (the target) is a positive integer. The decision problem asks for a subset of S whose sum is as large as possible, but not larger than t. This problem is NP-complete. This probl ...
