Selected (fits in knapsack)
Skipped (doesn't fit)
Greedy Knapsack Algorithm:
- 1. Calculate usefulness-to-weight ratio for each item
- 2. Sort items by ratio in descending order
- 3. For each item in sorted order:
- a. If item fits in remaining capacity, select it
- b. Otherwise, skip it
- 4. Continue until all items are processed
Note: The greedy approach gives a good approximation but may not always find the optimal solution for the 0/1 knapsack problem.
