* Make sure your lines are straight across the paper, and do not slant haphazardly.
* Write somewhat large. Not excessively large, but larger than one would do for Essays in English and other writing assignments. Gauge how much room you need to answer the Free Response and write in a size accordingly.

Here's an example of how it might go wrong, a implementation that essentially buys the most expensive items first... With three items with three distinct worths, $40, $30, and $20, with a total budget of $50, one can quickly notice that purchasing the two items worth $30 and $20 will yield the budget matched perfectly. However, a implementation that buys the most expensive item first will fail!
Similarly, a implementation that does the opposite will fail too: five items, [$50, $25, $15, $5, $1], budget of $65. The implementationn will attempt a combination of $1, $5, $15, and $25 for a total of $46. The proper choice would in fact be $50 and $15. The choices picked have no distinct pattern, and a `Combinations` algorithm will need to be implemented, which can be very difficult for those new to it (me included!).

My implementation is incomplete as of this moment.
