Dec 9, 2016 at 14:58 comment added Tobi Alafin @DavidRicherby, can you please at least tell me the formal name of my "problem"? I have not yet researched it(in part due to not knowing it's name)
Dec 9, 2016 at 14:51 comment added Tobi Alafin I don't know the solution. I'm not "testing" anybody. It was a problem I thought up, and I wanted to see the solution for it.

Dec 9, 2016 at 14:49 comment added David Richerby OK, glad to know that it's a self-composed problem. But still, that's not what this site is for. We expect that the answers to questions asked here will be useful to the person who asked the question. We're not looking for questions that are essentially a test to the answerer. We're here to help people understand computer science, not to prove that we can solve puzzles.

Dec 9, 2016 at 14:40 comment added Tobi Alafin I made up this question. I wrote an exam in Networking today, and realised that tge questions were set such that all topics taught were covered(though we had one compulsory question). I have not yet started classes on Data Structures and Algorithms. I'm taking it next semester. My knowledge on it is self taught. I know my problem is related to set cover, but it seems differnt enough, that I thought it might be a different problem. That and I haven't reached algorithms for solving set cover yet in my textbook.
