Here I introduce the simplex algorithm by an example. This example follows the book "Understanding and Using Linear Programming" by Jirka Matoušek and Bernd Gärtner.
Make sure to know the concepts of equational (aka standard) form and basic feasible solutions, before watching this (I have a video on these concepts.)
