Hello All,

I was just stopping-by to make a rare post and I poked into this thread.

In my mind I think of these kinds of problems as 'least energy state' problems. These very often correlate to conditions in analog setttings. By thinking one's way forth-and-back through analog-digital conversions, some unnoticed feature of the problem often presents itself. Your analogue thougtht-picture of blocks in a tall wall is an example.

I imagined myself with a large appliance box and spheres of varying diameter representing the jobs. With spheres in the box I shake the box, stop, note the arrangement of spheres, and repeat.

Anyone else with a thought picture?
