Implementing a mathematical formula

I want to implement the following mathematical formula in python:




optimal[i][s]=max{ optimal[i+1][s], optimal[i+1][s-J[i]] + V[i-1]
(s>J[i])}




I tried the following:



W={1:3,2:2,3:1,4:4,5:5,6:9,7:6,8:7}
V=[25,20,15,40,50,55,45,58]
optimal=[]
J=list(W.values())
s=12
for i in range(1,len(W)):
while J[i]<s:
optimal[i][s]=max(optimal[i+1][s],optimal[i+1][s-J[i]]+V[i-1])
print(optimal)


But i get an ERROR saying:




List index out of range.

    I have no idea what you're trying to do, but optimal is an empty list and you are trying to access non-existent elements from it. To add elements to an empty list use extend() or append().

Your formulation is similar to dynamic programming. If you search with dynamic programming and python keywords, you can find good examples. Especially https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/0-1-knapsack-problem-dp-10/
and https://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/20569/dynamic-programming-knapsack-solutionhttps://www.geeksforgeeks.org/0-1-knapsack-problem-dp-10/
