Degenerate Problems Below is a java applet that will present a set of degenerate linear programming problems for you to solve. After correctly solving a problem, the applet will immediately give you a new one. In this applet, e1, e2, e3, e4 are the epsilons explained in Chapter 3. Each problem must be solved using the Simplex Method . Any attempt to make an incorrect pivot will be rejected but your score will be increased by one.
Low scores are better than high scores.
The set of linear programming problems to be solved is determined by specifying the number of rows, the number of columns, the seed, and the number of problems in the set. Your instructor will tell you what values to use for these fields. Make sure that you enter exactly what your instructor tells you for otherwise you will be doing the wrong set of problems and it will be impossible to fairly evaluate your performance. Also, be sure to enter your email address and your instructor's email address. When you are ready to begin, press the Go Pivoting button and then, when the pivot window pops up, press the Start button.
