May 9, 2017 at 8:10 comment added Peter Taylor Yet another related question, this time as a more general variant.
May 9, 2017 at 6:51 comment added user62131 Wow there are a lot of near-duplicates of this question. In some languages, the best answer to that question would also be the best answer to this one. In other languages, the two would differ.

May 8, 2017 at 22:06 comment added Draco18s no longer trusts SE @xnor I agree, but I think for most currencies (particularly a 1/2/5 set) there aren't any combinations that return truthy that are also unsolvable by the greedy heuristic. We'd need a different set of coins (the McDonald's chicken nugget boxes?)
May 8, 2017 at 22:03 comment added Beta Decay Kind of related but the overall endpoint of the challenge is very different
May 8, 2017 at 21:49 comment added Wheat Wizard Very closely related

May 8, 2017 at 21:24 comment added user62131 Related. Also related. The former question is arguably a duplicate, but this question is IMO better-designed and if we're to close one as a duplicate, I'd rather close the older one.

May 8, 2017 at 20:17 comment added xnor I'd suggest adding test cases that cannot be solved with the greedy heuristic of taking the largest unused coin that is that is at most the remaining value. It would also be good to have ones where the input isn't sorted and where a value can be made more than one way. It's generally good for test cases to avoid the possibility that someone makes a reasonable attempt at the problem that works for the test cases without being right on everything.

May 8, 2017 at 19:37 comment added Digital Trauma Can we assume the input coin values are sorted?
