Description
|
|
•
|
The call ratio(C, x) returns a list of ratios which can be used to determine which equation in C is most restrictive with respect to the next simplex pivot. For each equation, the ratio computed, if possible, is
|
•
|
All negative ratios are reported as infinity, as are those for which the denominator is 0.
|
•
|
The equations C are in the special form produced by simplex[setup].
