We are in 2018 and you posted this on 2012 and you still saving lives, god bless you man

[@chicito83]

No he is not i'm still dying

[@Deaznkid280]

Im in a 3 hour lecture class and my professor attempted to lecture linear programming in 3 hours.. and I learned how to do it in about 15 minutes with this video...

[@kushdesai2694]

My teacher did it in 5 min so I have no idea what to do.

[@johannesteilmann6667]

We are in 2020 and you posted this on 2012 and you still saving lives, god bless you man

[@HayArday]

This was so helpful! It's funny how I understand better watching video tutorials rather than real live lecturers teaching in front of me lol. Very helpful indeed!

[@schowdhury9963]

So true!!

[@ezra3752]

my teacher makes it sound so hard and you make it look so easy got a a test on this tomorrow so thanks man

[@realgt4863]

How did you do on your test after learning it the day before? I have one tomorrow

[@sillyseason1]

Doing this is my last year of high school right now, and we have no teacher! This has been so helpful, thank you so much!

[@hutchings2]

Great example of LP. Clarified many questions I had. I appreciate you not skipping over the "simple" stuff and working all aspects of the word problem.

[@frankfid-odiatu9415]

you are the best. great tutorial. you just deciphered a foreign language for me

[@rae-annknapp7342]

Best example I've seen yet! Thank you. I was about to withdraw from my finite class.

[@jordanfokoua3242]

Thanks for your explicit explanation. It has been of great help to me. Won't hesitate to recommend

[@TheRealAK786]

Cleared the doubt on my mind regarding LP. Superb tutorial. Respect from London!

[@SCSimmer24]

This was so helpful! I have been working on this in class for days and have not understood it but after this video I totally get it and I'm confident for my test. Thank you so much!

[@sunny508361]

wow finally i got a good teacher......Before that i was having rough time with linear programming

[@emekaofordile8835]

Its 2019 & this is the easiest lecture I've had on linear programming/optimization. Wish I had this when I was in the university in '97.

[@mricet1005]

Emeka Ofordile Thank you.

[@mitchseime5079]

I just finished a systems optimization class and this helped clear some of my confusion. Thanks!

[@AbhishekPhadkeabusyms]

Thank you so much for the elaborate tutorial! Had completely forgotten how to solve it but thanks to you it's as if I learnt it yesterday! Cheers

[@badugi]

operational researching is tough, and thank you for making linear programming simple to understand.

[@tife1993]

very helpful! just struggled with this in my Masters today but this video resolved everything!

[@Akash23rd]

Thank you! We were asked to do a project which involved LP although we never learnt it! This video solved half of the problems I faced! THANK YOU so much!

[@sun2maro]

Thank you! I'm a homeschooling mom to three teens and this really helped explain linear programming when we became stuck!

[@srslychristy]

calming voice and a perfect presentation and example in order to explain linear programming, and you made it look so simple because it is the way you taught it! I was having troubles before and now I understand it, thank you so much!!

[@badname3659]

Thanks so much I learned from this video better than the 5, 45 minute class periods my teacher used to teach this

[@staticsound7925]

short simple and straight to the point,,,,so helpful thanks

[@JP-mc3bv]

Thank you for the helpful video. I'll note that for programming applications we simply use a matrix representation. Then use gaussian elimination to solve (unless there is a more efficient method), then use the objective function to find the optimum (with code of course). So, same thing, just done with matrices.

[@ayishatuadam4114]

i love this tutorial. it has helped me a lot to understand what linear programing is all about. thanks Mr. T. I appreciate your efforts

[@Skidztr]

Dear Randy, Thanks a lot. I am learning this as part of my MBA program. My teacher teaches really well. However, I am bit weak in grasping concepts when it comes to math. This video was really helpful. Since the basics are now clear to me, I feel more confident. Thanks again! God Bless!

[@phineasnyangoro1906]

You are simply the best, very thorough and easy to follow.

[@Hathi0123456789hathi]

Very helpful, I was really struggling with the linear programming basics. Strongly recommend it to MBA students, and all others of course!

[@vidzeerox]

That was amazing. wow... been trying this for hours and now I know this in 15 minutes. just... wow. Thanks so much.

[@Injudiciously]

Jump straight to 4:55 to get to the easy example. This is a common example used elsewhere, but explained most clearly here I felt. For my simple brain, I got completely lost in the "theoretical" preceding, but I understood the example. Ps: Thanks.

[@mitchythekid5596]

this video really helped. i'm not sure if it was me or my teacher but i just did not get it at all and this video makes alot more sense

[@GtaRockt]

holy marony I can't believe this is so easy actually you are a god

[@SuperAmirwaraich]

gay?

[@yabsira1321]

Amir Waraich what?

[@keremayan452]

I am a simple man, I understand, I subscribe.

[@asifkamranmalick5313]

This is so easily explained. Thank you so much Sir Randy Thomas.

[@ntombiyakhemasoeu6146]

best tutorial ever, now i will be able to nail this in my exam

[@thomasp1482]

Thanks sooooo much you made this problem look so plain and clear to understand!!!!

[@htakahashi]

Very clear. I'm also studying for my master's and this really helped. Thanks!

[@payndha6228]

Have A math test tomorrow and this helped me get ready. Thanks

[@Brewskidudes]

I opened the chapter in the book to do an assignment with a frown, 20mins later I was searching for tutorials on youtube and 1st one I clicked on was this cos I saw an old man in the avatar..... 15mins later I'm smiling and recommending this video to classmates.

[@mricet1005]

I'm not old! I've just been around a long time!

[@Brewskidudes]

@@mricet1005 Hahaha... sorry sir; my bad!! But you are definitely a great teacher though!! Glad to have you reply on my comment!!

[@mricet1005]

@@Brewskidudes I was teasing. That saying is from a favorite song of mine by Delbert McClinton. Glad you found the tutorial useful. I have hundreds of tutorials on Algebra and Calculus, so check them out if you need help on other topics too. Good luck!

[@Brewskidudes]

@@mricet1005 Thanks A lot . Sure will, and recommend your channel to others.

[@mricet1005]

Glad it helped you. I have lots of other tutorials on various algebra and calculus topics too that you may find useful. Best of luck!

[@irinaelcheva3760]

Great video. Thank you so much! Thank you for the historical reference too.

[@janchytil541]

Dear Randy Thomas; In your example of the farming profit optimization you are mixing apples and oranges. The first constrain plots the total land available in [acres]. The second constrain plots [hrs/year] spent on each product ON THE SAME axises. Therefore the intercept of both is completely arbitrary; it may not exist. The units on both axises should be consistent in order to obtain meaningful results.

[@kitaranotes]

thank you for this mr. thomas, it really help me for tomorrow's exam...

[@donjr3270]

This is exactly what I needed! Thank you!

[@animeforest]

thank you!! I have a test tomorrow and this video saved me. :)

Hello, this was more than helpful. Thanks a lot.

[@getachewosso7689]

its good,but i have question,the question is .The uses wood and labor to produce tables and chairs.Recall that unit profit for tables is $6,and unit profit for chairs is $8.There are 300 board feet of wood available,and 110 hours of labor available.It takes 30 board feet and 5 hours to make a table ,and 20 board feet and 10 hours to make a chair.Then a.Formulate linear programing problem. b.Construct the graph and plot constraint lines. c.identify the feasible region. d.determine the optimal solution by algebraically calculating coordinates of the most attractive corner.
