class Simplex extends MinimizerLP

The Simplex class solves Linear Programming (LP) problems using a tableau based Simplex Algorithm. Given a constraint matrix 'a', limit/RHS vector 'b' and cost vector 'c', find values for the solution/decision vector 'x' that minimize the objective function 'f(x)', while satisfying all of the constraints, i.e.,

minimize f(x) = c x subject to a x <= b, x >= 0

In case of 'a_i x >= b_i', use '-b_i' as an indicator of a '>=' constraint. The program will flip such negative b_i back to positive as well as use a surplus variable instead of the usual slack variable, i.e., a_i x <= b_i => a_i x + s_i = b_i // use slack variable s_i with coefficient 1 a_i x >= b_i => a_i x + s_i = b_i // use surplus variable s_i with coefficient -1

Creates an MM-by-NN simplex tableau with -- [0..M-1, 0..N-1] = a (constraint matrix) -- [0..M-1, N..M+N-1] = s (slack/surplus variable matrix) -- [0..M-1, NN-1] = b (limit/RHS vector) -- [M, 0..NN-2] = c (cost vector)
