Summary:In a recent article [3] Weil and Kettler present a procedure for rearranging rows and columns of a matrix to achieve a block angular form. It appears that their method can also be used, with a minor modification, to rearrange matrices into another form which is useful for linear programming. A coefficient matrix is said to have coupling rows and coupling columns if it has the structure
