assistant: Yes there is a python library called hungarian-algorithm on PyPi.
You can install it with this command: `pip3 install hungarian-algorithm`.

If you want to know more about how to use this library, you can read the library page on PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/hungarian-algorithm/

assistant: Hungarian Algorithm: A Python 3 graph implementation of the Hungarian Algorithm (a.k.a. the Kuhn-Munkres algorithm), an O(n^3) solution for the assignment problem, or maximum/minimum-weighted bipartite matching problem.

You can find it from URL: https://pypi.org/project/hungarian-algorithm/

prompter: Make the answer more compact. First, give a max. 2 sentence description of the algorithm, then give a few bullet points outlining the major parts of the algorithm and only then give an implementation that includes 3 unit tests at the end.

assistant: The Hungarian Algorithm, also known as the Kuhn-Munkres algorithm, is a combinatorial optimization algorithm used to solve the assignment problem. The assignment problem is finding the optimal one-to-one mapping between two equal-sized sets to minimize the total cost.

Here's an outline of the steps for writing the Hungarian Algorithm:

1.  Create a cost matrix from the input data, where each cell represents the cost of assigning the corresponding item from set A to the corresponding item from set B.
    
2.  Subtract the minimum value in each row from all elements in the row to reduce the number of zeros in the matrix.
    
3.  Subtract the minimum value in each column from all elements in the column to further reduce the number of zeros.
    
4.  Mark all the zeros in the matrix and find the minimum number of lines (horizontal and vertical) required to cover all the zeros.
    
5.  If all zeros are covered by the minimum number of lines, then the algorithm is finished and the optimal assignments are found.
    
6.  If there are uncovered zeros, find the smallest element not covered by a line and add it to all the lines covering the zeros in its row and column.
    
7.  Repeat the process until all zeros are covered by the minimum number of lines.
    
8.  The final solution is found by choosing the assignment with the lowest cost for each covered row.
    

Note that there are different implementations of the Hungarian Algorithm, including both O(n^3) and O(n^4) versions.

prompter: Ok, I think I understand this, but it would really help to see an example. Can you show me an example of the Hungarian algorithm?

assistant: an example in python:

import numpy as np

#The matrix who you want to find the maximum sum
profit_matrix = np.random.randint(10,size=(5, 5))

#Using the maximum value of the profit_matrix to get the corresponding cost_matrix
max_value = np.max(profit_matrix)
#Using the cost matrix to find which positions are the answer
cost_matrix = max_value - profit_matrix

print(f"The profit matrix is:\n", profit_matrix, f"\nThe cost matrix is:\n", cost_matrix)

prompter: What programming language is that written in?

assistant: Python.

assistant: The code is written in Python, however it uses the numpy library that must be installed separate using Pythons package manager pip like so.

```
$ pip install numpy
```
