Talk:Subset sum problem

I ran into some unanticipated implementation issues the last time I tried to create a task, so I'd like to request feedback on this one before promoting it even though it seems straightforward enough to me.

1) Why the words? 2) Caution about trying all subsets being "infeasible" seems superfulous. The problem is NP-complete, so for any algorithm, it's easy enough to construct a data set that will run (practically) forever or exhaust memory. --Ledrug 08:16, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
