Linear optimization (or linear programming) is the name given to computing
the best solution to a problem modeled as a set of linear relationships.
These problems arise in many scientific and engineering disciplines. (The word
"programming" is a bit of a misnomer, similar to how "computer" once meant
"a person who computes." Here, "programming" refers to the arrangement of a plan
, rather than programming in a computer language.)
