Description of the change:

This pull request adds an implementation of the Primal-Dual Interior-Point Method for solving linear programming problems. The method handles >=, <=, and = constraints and ensures each variable x1, x2, ... >= 0.

Changes:

  • Added InteriorPointMethod class to solve linear programming problems using the Primal-Dual Interior-Point Method.
  • Included methods for validating input, converting constraints to standard form, and solving the linear programming problem.
  • Provided a main execution block to demonstrate the usage of the class.

Testing:

  • The implementation has been tested with a sample problem in the main execution block.
