// linear program
// min c^T x
// A x <= b
// x >= 0
// has an optimal solution x*, then there exists y (in fact an optimal
// solution of the dual linear program) such that
// y >= 0
// y^T A >= -c^T,
// y^T b = -c^T x*
//
// In the following instance, the linear program has an optimal solution,
// since it is feasible (take (1,0)) and bounded, due to the first
// constraint:
// min x_1 + 2x_2
// x_1 + 3x_2 <= 1
// -x_1 + x_2 <= -1
// x_1, x_2 >= 0

int b[] = { 1, -1}; // right-hand side
r[] = {CGAL::SMALLER, CGAL::SMALLER}; // constraints are "<="
int c[] = { 1, 2}; // objective function
// now construct the linear program; the first two parameters are
// the number of variables and the number of constraints (rows of A)
