Solving linear programming problems in a spreadsheet yields equations for maximizing business profits. As applied to business, linear programming typically involves an objective formula, such as ...

The death of mathematician George Dantzig is a scientific watershed. Dantzig developed "linear programming" and the simplex method, used to solve complex efficiency problems for large organizations.

Eventually linear programming came to be used in everything from manufacturing to diet planning. George Bernard Dantzig was born in Portland, Ore., on Nov. 8, 1914.
