Update: the more I test it, the more bugs I discover. It's likely going to take me a couple of days to fix these (and thanks for submitting this, hopefully this time we'll get it right :-)
I added some tests, fixed some bugs and merged the whole thing
@vene : i think what we are most lacking are examples and documentation, in case you want to make further contributions ;-)
The code would not even run with
L != None
because some variables were unset.The computation of
x_incr
used the wrong direction of the linear operator I think, and at the very end the dual point was returned instead of the primal point. (Is there an API for returning both? Could be useful.)I haven't written tests yet, but it works well on this proof-of-concept over the simplex:
