I wrote a tutorial on solving the knapsack problem with genetic algorithms in javascript a while back: http://burakkanber.com/blog/machine-learning-genetic-algorithms-in-javascript-part-2/ http://burakkanber.com/blog/machine-learning-genetic-algorit... There are better ways to solve this problem, of course, but the primary goal was to talk about GAs, not to solve the knapsack problem in the most efficient manner.
