    Notes:

    A Netlib LP problem, in lp/data.  For more information                    
    send email to netlib@ornl.gov with the message:

    The following are relevant excerpts from lp/data/readme (by David M. Gay):
                                                                              
    The column and nonzero counts in the PROBLEM SUMMARY TABLE below exclude  
    slack and surplus columns and the right-hand side vector, but include     
    the cost row.  We have omitted other free rows and all but the first      
    right-hand side vector, as noted below.  The byte count is for the        
    MPS compressed file; it includes a newline character at the end of each   
    line.  These files start with a blank initial line intended to prevent    
    mail programs from discarding any of the data.  The BR column indicates   
    whether a problem has bounds or ranges:  B stands for "has bounds", R     
    for "has ranges".                                                         
                                                                              
    The optimal value is from MINOS version 5.3 (of Sept. 1988)               
    running on a VAX with default options.

    From John Tomlin.                                                         
                                                                              
    On the problems supplied by John Tomlin, MINOS 5.3 reports that about     
    10% to 57% of its steps are degenerate:
