Problem
We are given @(@ A \in \B{R}^{m \times n} @)@, @(@ b \in \B{R}^m @)@, @(@ c \in \B{R}^n @)@, @(@ d \in \B{R}^n @)@, This routine solves the problem @[@ \begin{array}{rl} \R{minimize} & c^T x \; \R{w.r.t} \; x \in \B{R}^n \\ \R{subject \; to} & A x + b \leq 0 \; \R{and} \; - d \leq x \leq d \end{array} @]@

Vector
The type Vector is a simple vector with elements of type double.

level
This value is less that or equal two. If level == 0 , no tracing is printed. If level >= 1 , a trace of the lp_box operations is printed. If level >= 2 , the objective and primal variables @(@ x @)@ are printed at each simplex_method iteration. If level == 3 , the simplex tableau is printed at each simplex iteration.

A
This is a row-major representation of the matrix @(@ A @)@ in the problem.

b
This is the vector @(@ b @)@ in the problem.

c
This is the vector @(@ c @)@ in the problem.

d
This is the vector @(@ d @)@ in the problem. If @(@ d_j @)@ is infinity, there is no limit for the size of @(@ x_j @)@.

maxitr
This is the maximum number of newton iterations to try before giving up on convergence.

xout
This argument has size is n and the input value of its elements does no matter. Upon return it is the primal variables @(@ x @)@ corresponding to the problem solution.

ok
If the return value ok is true, an optimal solution was found.

Example
The file lp_box.cpp contains an example and test of lp_box. It returns true if the test passes and false otherwise.
