+# Instructions
+
+Your task is to determine which items to take so that the total value of his selection is maximized, taking into account the knapsack's carrying capacity.
+
+Items will be represented as a list of items.
+Each item will have a weight and value.
+All values given will be strictly positive.
+Bob can take only one of each item.
+
+For example:
+
+```text
+Items: [
+  { "weight": 5, "value": 10 },
+  { "weight": 4, "value": 40 },
+  { "weight": 6, "value": 30 },
+  { "weight": 4, "value": 50 }
+]
+
+Knapsack Maximum Weight: 10
+```
+
+For the above, the first item has weight 5 and value 10, the second item has weight 4 and value 40, and so on.
+In this example, Bob should take the second and fourth item to maximize his value, which, in this case, is 90.
+He cannot get more than 90 as his knapsack has a weight limit of 10.

+# Introduction
+
+Bob is a thief.
+After months of careful planning, he finally manages to crack the security systems of a fancy store.
+
+In front of him are many items, each with a value and weight.
+Bob would gladly take all of the items, but his knapsack can only hold so much weight.
+Bob has to carefully consider which items to take so that the total value of his selection is maximized.
