❔ Tasked with making a scheduling algorithm at summer internship
I'm an industrial engineering student that knows a bit of coding, but it seems like I've been given a big project. My employer wants an algorithm to create an optimized schedule for these two machines we have. They have certain constraints, such as one machine can only handle certain sizes, and the other can handle those sizes plus more. I'm going to learn all about the constraints, but what I'm trying to do research on right now is algorithms. I know nothing about them.
How would you approach learning about algorithms? The goal is to schedule the machines to complete orders in chronological order when possible, while ensuring there is no machine downtime.
