Dollar Weakness
The inflation outlook from the monetary and fiscal standpoint looks truly
deflationary, yet some believe that
dollar weakness will reverse this circumstance and create inflation. This is
unlikely. First, our imports are
about 13% of GDP, and even if the dollar were to halve in value, the price

In computer science, the partition problem is an NP-complete problem. The
problem is to decide whether a given multiset of integers can be partitioned
into two "halves" that have the same sum. More precisely, given a multiset
S of integers, is there a way to partition S into two subsets S1 and S2 such
that the sum of the numbers in S1 equals the sum of the numbers in S2?
如果可以多项式时间解决楼主的问题，只要m取2，看得到的subset summation是否等于
sum/2，就可以回答该set是否能够partition的query？

but the following code does not utilize that assertion.
the code is fairly clear:
array_A, array_B, let's say size(array_A) > size(array_B)
