Conclusion
In the present paper only general methods of solving mathematical programming problems have been considered, and special methods intended for solving problems of a definite class have not been touched upon. In particular, the method of dynamic programming has not been considered.
The development of simple special methods is of paramount practical value. As a rule, a concrete extremal problem has essential peculiarities, because of which it is possible to conduct a more meaningful investigation than is possible in the general case, and thus obtain a simplified method of solution.
