Talk:Integer programming

The suggestion that refers to the German page refers to the German page for Linear Programming, not Integer. I would recommend removing this banner. StitchProgramming (talk) 14:02, 8 July 2011 (UTC)


 * The German page is on integer linear programming, which in the English Wikipedia redirects to Linear_program. One possibility would be to expand this article with integer linear programming; others would be to expand Linear_program or create a separate article on integer linear programming. But then perhaps this article should be merged with Discrete optimization? Isheden (talk) 14:40, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

How is this the only information about this huge field of study? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.8.110.78 (talk) 00:37, 13 May 2010 (UTC)


 * I agree. Of all the Wikipedia articles about computer science related topics that I have seen, the quality of this article compared to my expectation for the quality of this article is extremely low. Bender2k14 (talk) 02:53, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

It would be nice to point out that Ax <= b means each element of Ax is less than or equal to the corresponding element in b, Ax(i) ≤ b(i) Nduchon (talk) 16:00, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

Why not introduce "Binary Program" (0-1 integer program) on this page or may be create a separate dedicated page for "Binary Program"?Amit 05:18, 29 March 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Qx2020 (talk • contribs)

The article says ILP is NP-Complete, but only decision problems can be NP-complete, as far as I'm aware. I have no references to back this up.

LP relaxation
The term "LP relaxation" is used in the Example section, but it is not explained until the "Algorithm" section further down the article. A reader (like myself) unfamiliar with the concept would benefit from an explanation of "LP relaxation" (and link to its page) in the first instance it is used. Perhaps the content could be reorganized or rewritten? Zor Quatre (talk) 23:14, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
