/*
 * This is the Branch and Bound Coin Selection algorithm designed by Murch. It searches for an input
 * set that can pay for the spending target and does not exceed the spending target by more than the
 * cost of creating and spending a change output. The algorithm uses a depth-first search on a binary
 * tree. In the binary tree, each node corresponds to the inclusion or the omission of a UTXO. UTXOs
 * are sorted by their effective values and the tree is explored deterministically per the inclusion
 * branch first. At each node, the algorithm checks whether the selection is within the target range.
 * While the selection has not reached the target range, more UTXOs are included. When a selection's
 * value exceeds the target range, the complete subtree deriving from this selection can be omitted.
 * At that point, the last included UTXO is deselected and the corresponding omission branch explored
 * instead. The search ends after the complete tree has been searched or after a limited number of tries.
 *
 * The search continues to search for better solutions after one solution has been found. The best
 * solution is chosen by minimizing the waste metric. The waste metric is defined as the cost to
 * spend the current inputs at the given fee rate minus the long term expected cost to spend the
 * inputs, plus the amount by which the selection exceeds the spending target:
 *
 * waste = selectionTotal - target + inputs × (currentFeeRate - longTermFeeRate)
 *
 * The algorithm uses two additional optimizations. A lookahead keeps track of the total value of
 * the unexplored UTXOs. A subtree is not explored if the lookahead indicates that the target range
 * cannot be reached. Further, it is unnecessary to test equivalent combinations. This allows us
 * to skip testing the inclusion of UTXOs that match the effective value and waste of an omitted
 * predecessor.
 *
 * The Branch and Bound algorithm is described in detail in Murch's Master Thesis:
 * https://murch.one/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/erhardt2016coinselection.pdf

/*
 * TL;DR: Coin Grinder is a DFS-based algorithm that deterministically searches for the minimum-weight input set to fund
 * the transaction. The algorithm is similar to the Branch and Bound algorithm, but will produce a transaction _with_ a
 * change output instead of a changeless transaction.
 *
 * Full description: CoinGrinder can be thought of as a graph walking algorithm. It explores a binary tree
 * representation of the powerset of the UTXO pool. Each node in the tree represents a candidate input set. The tree’s
 * root is the empty set. Each node in the tree has two children which are formed by either adding or skipping the next
 * UTXO ("inclusion/omission branch"). Each level in the tree after the root corresponds to a decision about one UTXO in
 * the UTXO pool.
 *
 * Example:
 * We represent UTXOs as _alias=[effective_value/weight]_ and indicate omitted UTXOs with an underscore. Given a UTXO
 * pool {A=[10/2], B=[7/1], C=[5/1], D=[4/2]} sorted by descending effective value, our search tree looks as follows:
 *
 *                                       _______________________ {} ________________________
 *                                      /                                                   \
 * A=[10/2]               __________ {A} _________                                __________ {_} _________
 *                       /                        \                              /                        \
 * B=[7/1]            {AB} _                      {A_} _                      {_B} _                      {__} _
 *                  /       \                   /       \                   /       \                   /       \
 * C=[5/1]     {ABC}         {AB_}         {A_C}         {A__}         {_BC}         {_B_}         {__C}         {___}
 *              / \           / \           / \           / \           / \           / \           / \           / \
 * D=[4/2] {ABCD} {ABC_} {AB_D} {AB__} {A_CD} {A_C_} {A__D} {A___} {_BCD} {_BC_} {_B_D} {_B__} {__CD} {__C_} {___D} {____}
 *
 *
 * CoinGrinder uses a depth-first search to walk this tree. It first tries inclusion branches, then omission branches. A
 * naive exploration of a tree with four UTXOs requires visiting all 31 nodes:
 *
 *     {} {A} {AB} {ABC} {ABCD} {ABC_} {AB_} {AB_D} {AB__} {A_} {A_C} {A_CD} {A_C_} {A__} {A__D} {A___} {_} {_B} {_BC}
 *     {_BCD} {_BC_} {_B_} {_B_D} {_B__} {__} {__C} {__CD} {__C} {___} {___D} {____}
 *
 * As powersets grow exponentially with the set size, walking the entire tree would quickly get computationally
 * infeasible with growing UTXO pools. Thanks to traversing the tree in a deterministic order, we can keep track of the
 * progress of the search solely on basis of the current selection (and the best selection so far). We visit as few
 * nodes as possible by recognizing and skipping any branches that can only contain solutions worse than the best
 * solution so far. This makes CoinGrinder a branch-and-bound algorithm
 * (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_and_bound).
 * CoinGrinder is searching for the input set with lowest weight that can fund a transaction, so for example we can only
 * ever find a _better_ candidate input set in a node that adds a UTXO, but never in a node that skips a UTXO. After
 * visiting {A} and exploring the inclusion branch {AB} and its descendants, the candidate input set in the omission
 * branch {A_} is equivalent to the parent {A} in effective value and weight. While CoinGrinder does need to visit the
 * descendants of the omission branch {A_}, it is unnecessary to evaluate the candidate input set in the omission branch
 * itself. By skipping evaluation of all nodes on an omission branch we reduce the visited nodes to 15:
 *
 *     {A} {AB} {ABC} {ABCD} {AB_D} {A_C} {A_CD} {A__D} {_B} {_BC} {_BCD} {_B_D} {__C} {__CD} {___D}

 *
 *
 * We refer to the move from the inclusion branch {AB} via the omission branch {A_} to its inclusion-branch child {A_C}
 * as _shifting to the omission branch_ or just _SHIFT_. (The index of the ultimate element in the candidate input set
 * shifts right by one: {AB} ⇒ {A_C}.)
 * When we reach a leaf node in the last level of the tree, shifting to the omission branch is not possible. Instead we
 * go to the omission branch of the node’s last ancestor on an inclusion branch: from {ABCD}, we go to {AB_D}. From
 * {AB_D}, we go to {A_C}. We refer to this operation as a _CUT_. (The ultimate element in
 * the input set is deselected, and the penultimate element is shifted right by one: {AB_D} ⇒ {A_C}.)
 * If a candidate input set in a node has not selected sufficient funds to build the transaction, we continue directly
 * along the next inclusion branch. We call this operation _EXPLORE_. (We go from one inclusion branch to the next
 * inclusion branch: {_B} ⇒ {_BC}.)
 * Further, any prefix that already has selected sufficient effective value to fund the transaction cannot be improved
 * by adding more UTXOs. If for example the candidate input set in {AB} is a valid solution, all potential descendant
 * solutions {ABC}, {ABCD}, and {AB_D} must have a higher weight, thus instead of exploring the descendants of {AB}, we
 * can SHIFT from {AB} to {A_C}.
 *
 * Given the above UTXO set, using a target of 11, and following these initial observations, the basic implementation of
 * CoinGrinder visits the following 10 nodes:
 *
 *     Node   [eff_val/weight]  Evaluation
 *     ---------------------------------------------------------------
 *     {A}    [10/2]            Insufficient funds: EXPLORE
 *     {AB}   [17/3]            Solution: SHIFT to omission branch
 *     {A_C}  [15/3]            Better solution: SHIFT to omission branch
 *     {A__D} [14/4]            Worse solution, shift impossible due to leaf node: CUT to omission branch of {A__D},
 *                              i.e. SHIFT to omission branch of {A}
 *     {_B}   [7/1]             Insufficient funds: EXPLORE
 *     {_BC}  [12/2]            Better solution: SHIFT to omission branch
 *     {_B_D} [11/3]            Worse solution, shift impossible due to leaf node: CUT to omission branch of {_B_D},
 *                              i.e. SHIFT to omission branch of {_B}
 *     {__C}  [5/1]             Insufficient funds: EXPLORE
 *     {__CD} [9/3]             Insufficient funds, leaf node: CUT
 *     {___D} [4/2]             Insufficient funds, leaf node, cannot CUT since only one UTXO selected: done.

 *
 * We implement this tree walk in the following algorithm:
 * 1. Add `next_utxo`
 * 2. Evaluate candidate input set
 * 3. Determine `next_utxo` by deciding whether to
 *    a) EXPLORE: Add next inclusion branch, e.g. {_B} ⇒ {_B} + `next_uxto`: C
 *    b) SHIFT: Replace last selected UTXO by next higher index, e.g. {A_C} ⇒ {A__} + `next_utxo`: D
 *    c) CUT: deselect last selected UTXO and shift to omission branch of penultimate UTXO, e.g. {AB_D} ⇒ {A_} + `next_utxo: C
 *
 * The implementation then adds further optimizations by discovering further situations in which either the inclusion
 * branch can be skipped, or both the inclusion and omission branch can be skipped after evaluating the candidate input

    /*
     * You can think of the current selection as a vector of booleans that has decided inclusion or exclusion of all
     * UTXOs before `next_utxo`. When we consider the next UTXO, we extend this hypothetical boolean vector either with
     * a true value if the UTXO is included or a false value if it is omitted. The equivalent state is stored more
     * compactly as the list of indices of the included UTXOs and the `next_utxo` index.
     *
     * We can never find a new solution by deselecting a UTXO, because we then revisit a previously evaluated
     * selection. Therefore, we only need to check whether we found a new solution _after adding_ a new UTXO.
     *
     * Each iteration of CoinGrinder starts by selecting the `next_utxo` and evaluating the current selection. We
     * use three state transitions to progress from the current selection to the next promising selection:
     *
     * - EXPLORE inclusion branch: We do not have sufficient funds, yet. Add `next_utxo` to the current selection, then
     *                             nominate the direct successor of the just selected UTXO as our `next_utxo` for the
     *                             following iteration.
     *
     *                             Example:
     *                                 Current Selection: {0, 5, 7}
     *                                 Evaluation: EXPLORE, next_utxo: 8
     *                                 Next Selection: {0, 5, 7, 8}
     *
     * - SHIFT to omission branch: Adding more UTXOs to the current selection cannot produce a solution that is better
     *                             than the current best, e.g. the current selection weight exceeds the max weight or
     *                             the current selection amount is equal to or greater than the target.
     *                             We designate our `next_utxo` the one after the tail of our current selection, then
     *                             deselect the tail of our current selection.
     *
     *                             Example:
     *                                 Current Selection: {0, 5, 7}
     *                                 Evaluation: SHIFT, next_utxo: 8, omit last selected: {0, 5}
     *                                 Next Selection: {0, 5, 8}
     *
     * - CUT entire subtree:       We have exhausted the inclusion branch for the penultimately selected UTXO, both the
     *                             inclusion and the omission branch of the current prefix are barren. E.g. we have
     *                             reached the end of the UTXO pool, so neither further EXPLORING nor SHIFTING can find
     *                             any solutions. We designate our `next_utxo` the one after our penultimate selected,
     *                             then deselect both the last and penultimate selected.
     *
     *                             Example:
     *                                 Current Selection: {0, 5, 7}
     *                                 Evaluation: CUT, next_utxo: 6, omit two last selected: {0}
     *                                 Next Selection: {0, 6}
