Is this kind of problem solvable?

[RickCogley]

Hello - forgive the newbie question but, I wonder, is it possible to use your module for this kind of problem? :

I have:

• list of patients at hospitals
• list of roaming doctors
• list of possible dates next month, to work
• list of constraints, such as "patient 10 is not available mondays", "doctor 3 is not available 4 May 2017", "a doctor can see only 15 patients per day", "a doctor can work only 2 days per week"

I would like to solve this and get a list of suggested dates to schedule, that don't have any conflicts.

Just trying to wrap my head around how this would be done using your module @timnon. Appreciate any guidance you can provide.

Sincerely, Rick

Sorry for the late reply. That is a perfect application of pyschedule, check the example: https://github.com/timnon/pyschedule-notebooks/blob/master/employee-scheduling.ipynb

The only limitation is the size of the problem, if you have hundreds of doctors, solving the problem might become hardm
