Simplex Method
• An introduction to the simplex method: The
simplex method is an iterative procedure used to
find the optimal solution to an LPP. It starts with
an initial feasible solution and then uses a series
of pivoting steps to move towards the optimal
solution.
• Iterative steps of the simplex method
• Pivoting

Conclusion
Hence we can understand that Linear Programming is a mathematical
optimization technique that can be used to solve complex problems. LPP
has a wide range of applications in fields such as business, finance,
engineering, and transportation. LPP is a powerful tool for decision-
making and can help organizations to optimize their resources, reduce
costs, and improve efficiency. However, it also has limitations and
challenges that must be carefully considered in practice. Overall, LPP is a
valuable tool for solving complex problems and making informed
decisions in various fields.
