Coin changing problem:

Greedy approach:

N=20

Coin ={1,5,10}

20-10=10 1

10-10=0 2

(10+10 ) rs have two 2 coin

Or

20-10=10

5___> 10-5=5

5---- 5-5=0

Total number of coins=3

Problem 2:

N=41

Coin= {4, 10 ,25}

Solved by greedy approach:

25--- 41-25= 16

10-> 16-10= 6

4-> 6-4=2 3= total number of coins

According to greedy approach, solution does not exist.

(25,4,4,4,4) according to this , solution is exist.

Greedy approach is fail


Solution is exist by DP.

Coin changing problem by DP:

N=4

Changing coin ={1,2,3}

i/j 0 1 2 3 4
1 1 1 1 1 1
2 1 1 2 2 3
3 1 1 2 3 4
0 having no chance : 1

Number of max ways to have change : 1111
