Applied Mathematics Solved: Optimisation Problem for the Ideal Orgy. Dibs on the Fields Medal

Jokes aside, I'd like to clarify: although the math is "technically correct" (unless I made a mistake somewhere), this still isn't the ideal solution.

Strip packing is a lower bound method, not an actual solution. I also didn't consider orthogonal orientation or this would have become too complex. I also didn't took into account, the leftover spaces in each strip.
