Java Program to Solve Knapsack Problem Using Dynamic Programming

This is java program to implement Knapsack problem using Dynamic programming.Given weights and values of n items, put these items in a knapsack of capacity W to get the maximum total value in the knapsack. Consider all subsets of items and calculate the total weight and value of all subsets. Consider the only subsets whose total weight is smaller than W. From all such subsets, pick the maximum value subset.

Here is the source code of the Java Program to Solve Knapsack Problem Using Dynamic Programming. The Java program is successfully compiled and run on a Windows system. The program output is also shown below.
