<p>Optimization algorithms find the input point set that either <a href="../../../../../../org/apache/commons/math3/optimization/GoalType.html" title="enum in org.apache.commons.math3.optimization"><code>maximize or minimize</code></a> an objective function. In the linear case the form of
the function is restricted to
