GNU Linear Programming Kit

For a course at uni (am not a practitioner in this domain in any measurement) we used cvxpy (and there was cvxopt for the matlab inclined).

Are those within the ballpark of what you need to do?

Am adding this response as both:

-1 Hey maybe you didn't know about this

-2 A question: Is CVXpy even in the same domain as those other tools listed here in the replies

cvxpy is only for linear programming (LP), but does not support mixed-integer programming (MIP), so you can only use it for some problems.

Also, I think cvxpy might implement an interior point method, not a simplex method, so you don't get a "vertex solution", which often has some nice sparsity attributes.
