This one is kinda hard to descibe. I have a list of multiple values. I need
a way to display the correct combinations of the values, each in a different series, where the sum of each series is between x and y. :S Two example scenarios: I have some files that are of various sizes. I want to backup to a floppy, cd, thumbdrives, etc... To minimize wasted space, which files to copy to disk 1, disk 2, etc... I have some CAT6 cable that comes in 500' or 1000' spools. I have multiple cable drops in various lengths. To minimize cable waste, how many spools and which runs from which spool. Is this too complicated for excel? 410 405 375 380 405 375 410 300 375 310 300 375 310 300 375 340 300 375 375 332 250 375 332 250 410 332 Which combination of these lengths will maximize the use of a spool of 1000' cable? and how many spools would i need? Thanks, |
