    [ReSolved]Limits, both Lower and Upper...

    Here's the problem. Lets say I have a series of variables, F1 thru Fn.
    Each one of these, individually, are >= B1. They also are individually <= T1. { For any Fn, B1 <= Fa <= T1 }
    Also, If you sum two of them together, any combination of two are >= B2, and <= T2.

    { For any 2 Fn, B2 <= Fa + Fb <= T2 }
    So, more explixitely, if you had F1 + F2, B2<= (F1+F2) <= T2.
    And More Generically, if you sum together N elements of {F1, F2, F3, ...}, then
    These N elements are <= Tn, and >= Bn.

    { For any K Fn, Bk <= Fa + Fb + ... <= Tk }

    Now, Some of these F's combine together in such a way to produce other F's.
    Given these equations, I would like to produce as many minima and maxima as possible.

    For example, lets say I had the equations as seen in the attached picture.




    I can build the limits as seen by hand thru visual inspection.

    Question #1) Can anyone add or improve upon the illustrated limits.
    Please feel free to build some upper limits.

    Question #2) Can anyone help me with how I should approach creating a progie that,
    given equations, variables, and elemental limits {All The Bn's and Tn's}
    produces the optimal Lower and Upper limits of the control variables?

    -Thanks,
    -Lou
