Took My First Test In Discrete Optimization

Just got my exam score:  47/50.

Two of the missed points I need to figure out.  The third is kinda penny-ante, at least in my opinion, but I now know the standard.

Update:  I totally missed a constraint when writing a linear programming problem in matrix form.  Doh!  I'm still trying to figure out the other "legitimate" point missed.

It's ironic that you publicize your participation in discreet optimization. (I may have spelled that incorrectly) ;)

I don't get your joke.

A joke that needs to be explained is by definition, not funny ... but something which was discreet would not normally be publicized ... of course, yours was discrete. Just wordplay ... no one laughed but no one was harmed ...
