The most important step in the above example is the definition of the basic solution using the
Task.putsolutioni function, where we define the status key for each variable. The actual values
of the variables are not important and can be selected arbitrarily, so we set them to zero. All variables
corresponding to columns in the linear system we want to solve are set to basic and the slack variables
for the constraints, which are all non-basic, are set to their bound.
The program produces the output:
Solution to Bx = b:
x1 = 1
x0 = 3
Solution to Bx = b:
x1 = 7
x0 = 7
and we can verify that x 0 = 2, x 1 = −4 is indeed a solution to (7.5).
