This is Mike Hohmeyer's C implementation of R. Seidel's algorithm for solving LPs (linear programs.)

Relevant paper: Seidel, R. (1991), "Small-dimensional linear programming and convex hulls made easy", Discrete & Computational Geometry 6 (1): 423–434, doi:10.1007/BF02574699

Original documentation

if you make "do_lp" and "randp" you can run the following test.

./randp 3 100 | ./do_lp

randp generates 100 random planes tangent to the hyperboloid in 3 dimensions centered at the origin with z as an axis of symmetry. Randp puts that on standard output. do_lp reads that and feeds it to the routine linprog, which solves the problem. If you look into do_lp.c you can observe how to call linprog.

Documentation is still rather sketchy so any questions can be directed to hohmeyer@icemcfd.com

If you want to attempt to make this double precision, pay special attention to the value EPS defined in tol.h which should be the smallest number so that 1.0 + EPS > 1.0
