It really depends on the exact problem.

There could be a dual problem which has to be minimised. (The skipped cells that is).

In these cases one could use standard minimisation algorithms.

    That is true. But I have turned to the community like many times before because I have a task to solve and conditions passed down to me by a BI officer that has even vaguely described the problem than I did it here. (yes I simplified the problem but if i posted the obscured interaction it is aimed to solve i don't think anyone would even try to participate, let alone ask for claricifations). Yes the problem is not clearly specified here and through interactions on this forum I believe the community is doing exactly what its intent is. By posting your comments you are helping me. Those that do not want to help, need not to post, those that do, thank you !!

    Really ppl, thank you all !!
