Linear programming is a technique for determining the optimum combination of resources to obtain a desired goal. It is based upon the assumption that there is a linear ,or straight line, relationship between variables and that the limits of the variations can be easily determined.

Distinguish between integer programming problem and linear programming problem?
Integer programming is a subset of linear programming where the feasible region is reduced to only the integer values that lie within it.
What is the relationship between linear programming problem and transportation problem?
you learn linear programming before you learn the transportation problem.
Will the solution to an linear programming problem always consist of integers?
No, it will not. In fact, there is a special branch of linear programming which is called integer programming and which caters for situations where the solution must consist of integers.
What is difference between linear and dynamic programming?
Dynamic programming (DP) has been used to solve a wide range of optimizationproblemsWhen solving a problem using linear programming, specific inequalities involving the inputs are found and then an attempt is made to maximize (or minimize) some linear function of the inputs.
Can a linear programming problem have exactly two optimal solutions?
Yes, a linear programming problem can have exactly two optimal solutions. This will be the case as long as only two decision variables are used within the problem.
