Well as far as my knowledge goes, any sequence of steps to solve a problem is an algorithm(some are simple algorithms and some are complex). In our case we couldn't use fractional knapsack since we couldn't break images.

We have used Knapsack 0-1 algorithm, since in our case images had different widths but the same height, we wanted to fit in as many images as possible so that they fit in the best way possible. We gave value 1 to each image and weight equal
