Excel Solver for Linear Programming
400399

401400
The Excel Solver is an optimization tool available in Microsoft Excel that allows users to find the optimal solution to decision problems involving constraints and objectives. It can solve linear and nonlinear programming problems by adjusting the values of decision variables to maximize or minimize a target (objective) function, subject to a set of constraints.

In the context of Linear Programming (LP) and the Simplex Method, Excel Solver can be used to:
406-
• Define decision variables (cells that Solver will change);
407-
• Set a linear objective function to maximize or minimize;
408-
• Specify constraints on variables (e.g., inequalities or equalities);
409-
• Use the Simplex LP solving method to compute the optimal solution
