    1.24 +The GLPK package is a set of routines written in ANSI C and organized
    1.25 +in the form of a callable library. This package is intended for solving
    1.26 +large-scale linear programming (LP), mixed integer linear programming
    1.27 +(MIP), and other related problems.
    1.28 +
    1.29 +The GLPK package includes the following main components:
    1.30 +
    1.31 +* implementation of the simplex method;
    1.32 +* implementation of the exact simplex method based on bignum (rational)
    1.33 +  arithmetic;
    1.34 +* implementation of the primal-dual interior-point method;
    1.35 +* implementation of the branch-and-cut method;
    1.36 +* application program interface (API);
    1.37 +* GNU MathProg modeling language (a subset of AMPL);
    1.38 +* GLPSOL, a stand-alone LP/MIP solver.
