  2. Linear programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_programming

    However, some problems have distinct optimal solutions; for example, the problem of finding a feasible solution to a system of linear inequalities is a linear programming problem in which the objective function is the zero function (i.e., the constant function taking the value zero everywhere).

  3. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    A solution of a linear system is an assignment of values to the variables ,, …, such that each of the equations is satisfied. The set of all possible solutions is called the solution set. [5] A linear system may behave in any one of three possible ways: The system has infinitely many solutions.

  4. List of writing systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_writing_systems

    Writing systems are used to record human language, and may be classified according to certain common features.. The usual name of the script is given first; the name of the languages in which the script is written follows (in brackets), particularly in the case where the language name differs from the script name.

  5. Writing system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writing_system

    For broader coverage of this topic, see Writing. A writing system comprises a set of symbols, called a script, as well as the rules by which the script represents a particular language. The earliest writing was invented during the late 4th millennium BC. Throughout history, each writing system invented without prior knowledge of writing gradually evolved from a system of proto-writing that ...

  6. Algebraic modeling language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_modeling_language

    An AML does not solve those problems directly; instead, it calls appropriate external algorithms to obtain a solution. These algorithms are called solvers and can handle certain kind of mathematical problems like: linear problems; integer problems (mixed integer) quadratic problems; mixed complementarity problems

  7. Duality (optimization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duality_(optimization)

    Linear programming problems are optimization problems in which the objective function and the constraints are all linear. In the primal problem, the objective function is a linear combination of n variables. There are m constraints, each of which places an upper bound on a linear combination of the n variables. The goal is to maximize the value ...

  8. Overdetermined system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overdetermined_system

    The rank of this matrix is 2, which corresponds to the number of dependent variables in the system. [2] A linear system is consistent if and only if the coefficient matrix has the same rank as its augmented matrix (the coefficient matrix with an extra column added, that column being the column vector of constants). The augmented matrix has rank ...

  9. Linear equation over a ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation_over_a_ring

    Let R be an effective commutative ring.. There is an algorithm for testing if an element a is a zero divisor: this amounts to solving the linear equation ax = 0.; There is an algorithm for testing if an element a is a unit, and if it is, computing its inverse: this amounts to solving the linear equation ax = 1.
