Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Simplex algorithm, developed by George Dantzig, is a widely used algorithm for solving linear programming problems. It is effective at investigating extreme points in an intelligent way to find the optimal solution to linear programs, even very large ones. Excel solver also uses the Simplex algorithm as its default optimization method for linear programming problems.
