"The general problem is NP"
 
Line 6:
 
Probably what is intended here is that the problem is ''NP-hard'', or perhaps ''NP-complete'' (which means both NP-hard and NP). Another slim possibility is that it means something like "the problem is NP, and if the polynomial-time heirarchy does not collapse, then the problem is not P". I don't know enough about the problem to say which of these is the intended meaning. Someone who does, please clarify. --[[User:Trovatore|Trovatore]] 06:43, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
 
: Apologies. It's not my field, and I just wrote it off the top of my head (from some dim memory). I changed it now to something possibly better, although I'm hoping that someone who knows the field will swoop in and make it into a real article. —[[User:Dfass|Dfass]] 07:30, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
