Enter linear objectives and constraints into a Windows-based application.
This linear programming application allows this user to enter objectives and constraints into a Windows-based application. This easy to use application solves both Primal and Dual equations. A must for students studying decision theory and systems management.
Has some errors, including output of final results.

Pros
Animation of objective function to solution node is great. Final tableau of problems I checked were OK, although the program moved through different nodes/intersections than a text on management science I had to use in an MBA program.
Cons
The errors are worst problems. Output of final solution apparently doesn't pick up the right figures from the final tableau. My textbook simplex solution went through different intersections, but both ended on same solution point.
Summary
Evaluating the software was a learning experience for me, but I can't use it in tutoring college (i.e., Piedmont TEC, Greenwood, SC) students with the errors. The animation of the objective function converging to the final solution could have instructional value. If an error-free system could be supplied I would really try to come up with his requested $15 donation -- I'm an unemployed engineer, but ishould be able to come up with $15.

Pros
Cons
Summary
The only good thing about this program is the concept. It's a discrace to post a half completed program like this. Some buttons that appeared didnt have handlers - help files were unavailable and they have the cheek to ask $15 for this. I could seriously write a better program than this in say 5-7 odd hours...
