our requirement is -  is to minimize the maximum number of pages
assigned to a single scriber

Right?

see the example input and output

100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900

if is divided as 100 200 300 400 500 / 600 700 / 800 900
which has 1500 / 1300 / 1700 each scriber gets, so maximum is - 1700
if we divide it as  100 600 700 / 200 500 800 / 300 400 900
which has 1400 / 1500 / 1600 each scriber gets, so maximum is only -
1600

Is there any flaw in the question?
or am I missing anything?

I think this question is similar to we have n elements, divide into m
sets such that their differnce is minimum.

Then is it NP - complete problem?
