I completely forgot COSTS for each of the 14: they are here:

#

1 at the top, 14 all the way at the bottom. num in green as cost per unit they are willing to pay for (x) amount of demand seen in data.

#

per unit*

autumn python
#

Hello,
This is very difficult to understand

#

What's the relationship between the two tables you sent

jagged vector
#

one is the values it costs to "Research and develop" a product with those characteristics or "ranks" the customer has requirements on

autumn python
#

The first table seems to have 14 ranked objects
But why is the rank 14 more expensive ?

Is it more like "tier 1" to tier 14 ?

#

14 being the best?

jagged vector
#

the other table is the cost of production lines for manufacturing the said amount of units you will need, with the amount poer hour it can do and the pricepoint.

#

there are 14 of these places, thats why there is 14. difference in value is a coincedence.

#

as u can see, 11 has over 2million units of unmet demand

#

being definitely the largest source of income if you met their requirements

#

need to figure out which combination of ranks makes the most money based on price per unit * unmet demand , factoring in cost for RnD the said level of ranks you would need, factoring in the cost for a corresponding production line that would be feasible.

autumn python
#

I still dont understand the problem

#

What are you seeking to minimize

#

And under what constraints

#

Explicitly

#

It's too out of context

#

Maybe for you its clear, but we have no idea what the context is

autumn python
#

Arent the other 4 columns costs ?

#

Since you seem to have them ranked decreasingly

jagged vector
#

no random

#

also those are the costs per unit

#

for each of the 14 places

#

descending 1 to 14

#

that they would buy from the business who would produce the units

autumn python
#

So these 14 places

#

Produce units ?

#

Or they buy units

jagged vector
#

they are "customer hubs" analyizing the entirety of a city

#

analyzes the demand of the city as a whole?

#

but they all have only ONE reuqirement based on those 4 ranks

#

place 1 wants rank 1 res, 3 sensitivity, 1 power efficiency, and 1 temp. so they barely have any requirements, other than the product needs to have moderate investment in light sensitivity.

#

and developing rank 3 light sense costs 1.1 million dollars

#

according to the table

#

developing the 3 other qualities in the product would take roughly 171k + 171k + 440k

autumn python
#

There arent 14 places then

There are 4 places we need to compare

jagged vector
#

and then we can supply the unmet demand they have at that price per unit. and that is revenue

autumn python
#

4 lines of production

jagged vector
#

not quite; i am sorry ifit is confusing

#

the problem has many parts

autumn python
#

It is extremely

#

Confusing

#

Not because the problem is hard

#

But because you have not presented things from the start

jagged vector
#

of course. Well, I am going to get back to trying to find solution coding. Have good day, do not confuse yourself more.

#

Perhaps someody else will understand me better, I am a poor explainer

#

rewriting all this would be quite the headahce

autumn python
#

After all it's your choice
I've been genuinely trying to understand

jagged vector
#

I know. And I dont think You can help me, given I have done a bad job explaining. Leave it here for someone else to read i suppose

autumn python
#

Well if you cannot bother to clarify further

#

You cannot expect your readers to make more effort than you on your own problem

#

And if you somehow do, you could at least not get offended by some well-meaning, honest feedback

jagged vector
#

of course not, which is why i politely asked you to walk away. I appreciate the time you did take. I have spent 5 hours coding on this problem

#

luckily nobody was offended

autumn python
#

Okay ...

#

That's exactly it: you are familiar with the problem but we are not
So some things which may be obvious by now for you, are not for those seeing the problem for the first time

jagged vector
#

just for you daddy, since you are so determined. I will spend the next 20 minutes rewriting everything.
