LINDO (Linear, Interactive, and Discrete Optimizer) is a software package for linear programming, integer programming, nonlinear programming, stochastic programming and global optimization.[1]
LINGO is a mathematical modeling language used as part of LINDO.[2][3]
Today, LINDO solvers are part of LINDO API (Application Programming Interface) a set of software libraries that can be called from different programming languages to create custom mathematical optimization applications.
It is designed to solve optimization problems that arise in areas of business, industry, research, and government. The LINDO package includes sample applications related to product distribution, ingredient blending, production, personnel scheduling, inventory management.
LINDO also creates "What'sBest!" which is an add-in for linear, integer and nonlinear optimization. First released for Lotus 1-2-3[4] and later also for Microsoft Excel.[5]
