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.

Now, linear programming, or LP as we like to call it, is quite a handy mathematical tool. It helps optimize a goal, which we call an objective function, while keeping in mind some linear constraints ...
