Default Waste Reduction Program

I hope I can explain what I need properly.
I have a list of rebar cut lengths. This list is in one column only, and uses decimal values for feet (i.e. 12'6" = 12.5) Sometimes, this list is rather long. I need to find out how to cut these bars out of 60' stock lengths in a way that will leave me with the least amount of scrap possible. Each bar on my list can only be used once, until all bars are accounted for, and I need to have a count of how many stock bars were used.

Thanks in Advance!!
