IN C++ please!!!

Bin Packing problem description: Given an array of numbers, goal is to group them into minimum possible # of bins, but each bins items should not go above fixed bin capacity of 100. Let us assume that array contents are already in sorted order.

However, in this lab, we are ONLY validating a possible solution - so, we need to get an array of numbers in one line, another set of numbers in the next line to get the bin assignments for each number & check whether it is a valid solution (we are NOT checking whether it is the best solution though - that is lot harder - come to office hours if you want to discuss about it!). Here are a few sample inputs & outputs:

2 5 11 32 45 78 95 99 1 2 3 3 3 2 1 0 Valid 

First line has the input numbers, Second line has the bin assignments. 2 goes to bin 1, 5 goes to bin 2, 11 goes to bin 3, So this solution uses 4 bins with the following totals in each bin: 99, 97, 83, 88. So the solution is valid!

 2 5 11 32 45 78 95 99 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 4 Bin 3 not used 

Bin index 4 is used & bin index 3 has been skipped - that is not valid.

2 5 11 32 45 78 95 99 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 2 Bin 1 total goes above 100 

Total of 78 and 95 goes above 100. So, it is invalid.

2 5 11 32 45 78 95 99 0 0 11 0 0 1 2 3 Bin 11 out of range 

Bin 11 is out of range, since there are only 8 items in the input! There is absolutely no need to use more than 8 bins.

2 5 32 45 78 95 99 111 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 3 Input item 111 out of range

Here is the code! Please help me with full detail in the validate() function and I will be much grateful! I'll definitely learn from this! Thank you!

#include

#include

#include

using namespace std;

//let us assume we won't go over 100 numbers

const int MAXITEMS = 100;

int items[MAXITEMS], binAssignments[MAXITEMS];

int numItems=0; //stores actual # of items

const int BINCAPACITY = 100;

void validate() {

// WRITE YOUR CODE HERE

}

int main() {

string line;

int numAssignments = 0;

//get all the items first.

getline(cin, line); //get one line of input

istringstream istr(line); //convert it to inputstringstream

//extract the numbers from the stream into the array

while (istr >> items[numItems])

numItems++;

//get bin assignments now.

getline(cin, line);

istringstream istr2(line);

while (istr2 >> binAssignments[numAssignments])

numAssignments++;

if (numItems != numAssignments) {

cout << "# of items and # of bin assignments mismatch.";

exit(1);

}

validate();

}
