Adapted from this Stack Overflow question.

What would non overlapping look like if there were, say, 8000 items with the same price (random would allow for this)? --~~

Very poor name

What is the significance of them being prices? What is the significance of them being "behind an API"? I can't see why either has any meaning to the task. Yeah, yeah, Stackoverflow question, yada, yada, yada. Would probably be better something like "Bin by range" or some such. Also, what difference does it make if the units are specifically pounds? (No pence!) How about if they were Stanley nickels? How would that change the problem? --Thundergnat (talk) 12:32, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
