Simplex Algorithm for Linear Programming 📊

In this lecture, we discuss one method of solving linear programming problems: the simplex algorithm. In particular, we discuss a generalization of the simplex algorithm known as the two-phase simplex algorithm, which can be used to solve non-canonical tableaus for which the origin is not a basic feasible solution.

This is the last video I have planned for the algorithm series, meaning that this will likely be the end of this lecture series. I hope you all enjoyed it, and I hope you'll stick around for the future lectures I plan to release on other subjects!
