Products that do what Allocate poker chips optimally with mixed-integer nonlinear programming does

Every time I play a casual cash poker game with friends, we spend the first several minutes struggling to figure out chip denominations. I built this to automate that process. Try it out here (the submitted link goes to the GitHub repo): https://jstrieb.github.io/poker-chipper/ It turns out that picking chip denominations optimally—such that as many chips are distributed as possible, and such that the denominations are nice—is hard (in the computational complexity sense). Upon reflection, the problem seemed to be a perfect fit for constrained optimization. I first got a…
