Hi. I am not sure, what is the problem with the constraints. According to the documentation of the function solveLP(), the constraints are provided as the arguments "bvec" and "Amat". However, i am using "lpSolve" package and have no experience with "linprog" package. An example of solving a simple linear program using lpSolve follows. Consider the problem to maximize 3*x + 2*y with the constraints x >= 0 y >= 0 x + y <= 3 2*x + y <= 5 x + 2*y <= 5 then try library(lpSolve) crit <- c(3, 2) mat <- rbind(c(1, 1), c(1, 2), c(2, 1)) rhs <- c(3, 5, 5) dir <- rep("<=", times=3) out <- lp("max", objective.in=crit, const.mat=mat, const.dir=dir, const.rhs=rhs) out Success: the objective function is 8 out$solution [1] 2 1 Hope this helps.
