Sometimes it might not be possible to easily determine which is the longest piece. For inctance if the pieces are on opposite sides ov the bundle, and are very close in height. Also, if you have lots of tiny pieces, and some longer pieces, the bundle won't form a nice column. You'd have to have a minimum length to help form the bundle, then add your number to that minimum length. It seems so strange to me that there are so many algorithms that our brains use, that we don't fully understand yet. I self reflect all the time about my own decision making, and the way I see, hear, think, and remember. We all do these things, but what are the underlying algorithms? What data is being stored, how is it represented, and how is it being compared, manipulated, and updated?
