Being new to AI programming I have a request for some direction with a current problem. I am developing a module that will accept a list of various lengths and break the list down so that the values fit into a given stock length. The results should be sorted by the values that fit into each stock length and will show the amount of scrap for each length.

Again, I'm not asking for a solution to the problem, I'm looking for some direction so I can finish this on my own.
