It describes one person's perspective on the development of computational tools for linear programming. The paper begins with a short, personal history, followed by historical remarks covering the some 40 years of linear-programming developments that predate my own involvement in this subject. It concludes with a more detailed look at the evolution of computational linear programming since 1987.25 ppengTechnical reportTR01-20
