Comment (by dimpase):
IMHO this should be an optional package. It's quite different from the
rest of Sage library, as I cannot recall any place where an effort is made
to "deconstruct" an algorithm, preparing it for undergraduate teaching.
I started to look at the patch. There seems to be a numeric discrepancy in
the 1st example. Indeed, on line 38 {{{A = ([1, 1], [3, 1])}}}
corresponds to 1 kg per acre needed for barley, not 5.
Then, {{{"regular LP solvers"}}} on line 7 reads strangely. I'd have
written {{{"regular" LP solvers}}}.
Also, {{{"the final answer"}}} on line 8 looks weird. This reads too
fatalistic, and brings in {{{"the final solution"}}}, something that one
should avoid due to its damned German translation. I'd have just written
{{{the result}}}, without quotes.
