Java Program to Implement First Fit Decreasing for 1-D Objects and M Bins

This is a Java Program to implement First fit Decreasing Bin Packing algorithm. The First Fit Decreasing (FFD) strategy, operates by first sorting the items to be inserted in decreasing order by their sizes, and then inserting each item into the first bin in the list with sufficient remaining space.

Here is the source code of the Java Program to Implement First Fit Decreasing for 1-D Objects and M Bins. The Java program is successfully compiled and run on a Windows system. The program output is also shown below.
