Greedy Knapsack

p
# To get an insight into Greedy Algorithm through the Knapsack problem


"""
A shopkeeper has bags of wheat that each have different weights and different profits.
eg.
profit 5 8 7 1 12 3 4
weight 2 7 1 6  4 2 5
max_weight 100

Constraints:
max_weight > 0
profit[i] >= 0
weight[i] >= 0
Calculate the maximum profit that the shopkeeper can make given maxmum weight that can
be carried.
