About:
SoPlex is an object-oriented library for solving linear programming problems (LPs) implemented in C++. It features a highly precise simplex optimizer that supports both exact rational arithmetic and floating-point arithmetic. The tool is widely used in academic research and as a foundation for other optimization software.
Key Features:
  • Dual simplex and primal simplex algorithms
  • Support for exact rational arithmetic
  • Highly precise floating-point arithmetic
  • C++ API with interfaces for Python and C
Use Cases:
  • Solving large-scale linear programming problems
  • Benchmarking and developing optimization algorithms
  • Research in mathematical optimization
Alternatives:
  • lp_solve – SoPlex is generally more robust and scalable for large problems.
  • GLPK – SoPlex often offers higher precision and better performance on specific LP models.
