Ben McCann commented on MATH-246:
---------------------------------

LinearEquation -> LinearConstraint is fine by me.  My thought with calling it LinearEquation was that it could potentially be reused by other algorithms.
GoalType moved from LinearObjectiveFunction to SimplexSolver is okay too.
LinearOptimizer interface is fine (though I'd be curious to see the interface definition and other implementing classes if you want more feedback)

If you were to remove LinearModel, I assume you would merge it into SimplexSolver?  Then the constructor would take:
GoalType goal, LinearObjectiveFunction objective, List<LinearConstraint> constraints, boolean restrictToNonNeagtive, double epsilon
That's fine too or did you have other plans to make adhere to the new interface?
