Hi,

I wanna ask about Knapsack. I do understand what Knapsack is about. But this 
one i faced is a different problem. There is no value. I mean, it's like this, 
for example.

I have 4 beams [X0, X1, X2, X3]. Each 1, 2, 2, 3 cm long. I want to make a new 
6 cm long connected-beam from these 4 beams. I can make it from some of these. 
The output will print:

1, 2, 3 #(X0, X1, X3)

You understand what my problem is? Can you help me?

Sincerely,

No, I don't understand what your problem is.

You say there are no values but then you give 4 values (1, 2, 2, and 3), and then you *solve* the Knapsack problem like this:
        1, 2, 3 #(X0, X1, X3)

That looks like a fine solution to me.

Questions:

 * Exactly *what* is the problem.  If you tell us *carefully* what the
   problem is, we may try to solve it.

 * This is a Python list.  Does your problem have anything to do with
   Python?

 * Is this a homework problem?  We generally don't solve homework
   problems here (since you don't learn anything that way), but we are
   certainly happy to help you learn.
