Algorithm to Calculate Basic Feasible Solution using Simplex Method Abstract: The problem of maximization/minimization deals with choosing the ideal set of values of variables in order to find the extrema of an equation subject to constraints. The simplex method is one of the fundamental methods of calculating the Basic Feasible Solution (BFS) of a maximization/minimization.
