Jan 3, 2010 at 19:25 comment added Richard As for 'S', my original problem specification described an example where one has a bag filled with marbles of certain (known) mass values, though the copy numbers of each marble type are unknown. A game is then played where you have to weigh the bag, obtaining a total weight 'S', and then decide whether: (1) you can exactly extrapolate the copy numbers of each marble type, or (2) how well you can extract probabilities for copy numbers. I wanted to know if there were analytical methods available to accomplish this and/or the most efficient algorithmic solution.
Jan 3, 2010 at 19:21 comment added Richard Fascinating about counting lattice points in polyhedra... thinking about it, that's exactly equivalent to my problem specification. As to your second point: I'm somewhat interested in the relationship between the 'precision' to which the real numbers (or integer sizes after a transformation) are known and the max(S) value for which this is a unique solution for [a_1, a_2, ..., a_n], however, I don't have a particular precision/integer size in mind.
