Package: openoffice.org-calc Version: 2.0.4.dfsg.2-5 Severity: important When using the solver to do linear programming, it always (at least when I've used it) gives answers outwith the constraints set. For example, for a 3 day weighted average forecast, the formula is: Ft = A*Dt-1 + B*Dt-2 + C*Dt-3 where A, B and C need to be between 0 and 1, and A+B+C=1. Putting this into the solver, it was bringing up the optimum values to be things like 1.1...., -0.8...., and A+B+C was always bigger than 1, clearly outwith the constraints set.
I can provide the spreadsheet if you cannot reproduce the problem at your end. On a side note, this is when I have "assume linear model" set. If I unset assume linear model, the solver always says "Iteration time out" and doesn't give a solution.
