Tutorial 1

- Software Installation: Anaconda is recommended for Python installation. Popular IDEs include Jupyter, Spyder, PyCharm, and VSCode. - Variables, Data Types, Functions, and Modules: Python supports basic data types like integers, floats, Booleans, strings, lists, tuples, dicts, and sets. Functions and modules can be defined and imported. - Control Flow: Python uses Boolean expressions, conditional statements like if/else, and iterations like while and for loops to control program flow.

Python Control Flow
• The Boolean Type Expressions
• Status: True or False
➢ Comparison operators (==, !=, >=, <=, >, <)
➢ Identity operators (is, is not)
➢ Membership operators (in, not in)
➢ Logic operators (and, or, not)

Geometry of LP Review
• Constraints
▪ Example: inequality constraint
x1 + 2x2 ≤ 3 define a half space

• Feasible Region
▪ Intersection of all constraints

• Extreme Points
▪ Corner points inside the feasible region
Geometry of LP Review
• Objective function
▪ Isoquant

• Optimal solution
▪ Best feasible solution
▪ Unique, not unique, not finite optimal solution

• Binding and non-binding constraints

• *Theorem: For any feasible LP with a finite number of optimal solution, there
exists an optimal solution that is an extreme point.
▪ From infinite number of feasible solution to finite number of extreme points
