In the general linear-programming problem of
it is often appropriate to study how the optimal solution changes when some of the data are functions of a single parameter λ. Most mathematical programming systems allow parametric analysis of the cost coefficients (PAROBJ), the right-hand-side elements (PARARHS), joint analysis of the objective function and right-hand-side elements (PARARIM), and the parametric analysis of the data in a row (PARAROW).
