These pages present a hands-on introduction to linear programming, part of the year 12 Applicable Mathematics curriculum. They are not intended to be used instead of formal lessons or using a text book, but as a supplement to give students another way of exploring this sometimes thorny subject material.
Note: These pages are based on the JSP applet from Key Curriculum Press. They require a web browser that correctly supports Java applets. Note that some Java Virtual Machines are not standards-compliant and may fail to run the JSP applet. If this occurs, I recommend obtaining a replacement JVM directly from the Sun Java site.
