Quadratic programming is a math problem that seeks to either minimize or maximize a quadratic problem. There are many ways to solve quadratic programming, such as using Lagrange multipliers, but these methods are lengthy and a novice mathematician can be prone to errors. The most efficient way to solve quadratic programming is by using a graphing calculator. If you have a Texas Instruments graphing calculator, such as the TI-83+ or TI-Nspire, it is easy to solve quadratic programming.
