Rod cutting problem

@pallesai

refer to CLRS Chapter Dynamic Programming.
Rod cutting.

above answer really refers to the Rod Cutting problem in Cormen Book. But for a little help i can say. Imagine that you had a rod of length only 1 then how you would have cut it. If rod had length 2 then how. If 3 then how. Simply you may understand how to do it. For help in code you may have look at this video. I also learned from this source how to code and the same person also has a channel on DP
