/**@file   lpi.h
 * @ingroup PUBLICMETHODS
 * @brief  interface methods for specific LP solvers
 * @author Tobias Achterberg
 * @author Marc Pfetsch
 *
 * This file specifies a generic LP solver interface used by SCIP to create, modify, and solve linear programs of the
 * form
 *
 *   min/max   obj * x
 *      lhs <=   A * x  <= rhs
 *      lb  <=       x  <= ub
 *
 * and query information about the solution. Although it includes a few SCIP header files, e.g., because it uses SCIP's
 * return codes, it can be used independently of any SCIP instance.
 *
 * The basis status for (column) variables are as follows:
 * - If x_j = lb, then j is at its lower bound (SCIP_BASESTAT_LOWER).
 * - If x_j = ub, then j is at its lower bound (SCIP_BASESTAT_UPPER).
 * - If x_j is in the basis, it has SCIP_BASESTAT_BASIC status.
 * - If x_j is free and non-basic, it has SCIP_BASESTAT_ZERO status.
 *
 * The basis status for (row) slack variables are:
 * - If (A * x)_i = lhs, then i is at its lower bound (SCIP_BASESTAT_LOWER).
 * - If (A * x)_i = rhs, then i is at its upper bound (SCIP_BASESTAT_UPPER).
 * - If the slack variable for row i is basic, it has SCIP_BASESTAT_BASIC status.
 *
 * If the solvers use their status differently, the have to be corrected.
 *
 * In the methods accessing information about the (inverse of the) basis matrix, the interface assumes the following
 * column-oriented format: slack variables of rows have coefficient +1 and the basis matrix is a regular m times m
 * submatrix of (A,I), where m is the number of rows and I is the identity matrix. This means that if, internally, the
 * LP solver uses coefficients -1 for some of the slack variables, then rows associated with slacks variables whose
 * coefficient is -1 should be negated in order to return the result in terms of the LP interface definition.
