What is a Linear Program?
A linear program (LP) is an optimization problem over some
set of variables, say x = (x1, ..., xn), in which the objective
function is linear in the xi variables and the region in which
the solution is allowed to lie can be defined by a series of
linear constraints.
More precisely, an LP can be described as:
minimize cT x
subject to Ax b
.
Alternatively, we can talk about optimizing over polytopes
(i.e, the generalization of a polygon). Given any polytope,
