function [z, history] = linprog(c, A, b, rho, alpha)

% linprog  Solve standard form LP via ADMM
%
% [x, history] = linprog(c, A, b, rho, alpha);
%
% Solves the following problem via ADMM:
%
%   minimize     c'*x
%   subject to   Ax = b, x >= 0
%
% The solution is returned in the vector x.
%
% history is a structure that contains the objective value, the primal and
% dual residual norms, and the tolerances for the primal and dual residual
% norms at each iteration.
%
% rho is the augmented Lagrangian parameter.
%
% alpha is the over-relaxation parameter (typical values for alpha are
% between 1.0 and 1.8).
