In a recent paper, Yang proposes an integer labeling algorithm for determining whether an arbitrary simplex P in Rn contains an integer point or not. The problem under consideration is a very difficult one in the sense that it is NP-complete. The algorithm is based on a specific integer labeling rule and a specific triangulation of Rn. In this paper we discuss a practical implementation of the algorithm and present a computer program (ILIN) for solving integer programming using integer labeling algorithm. We also report on the solution of a number of tested examples with up to 500 integer variables. Numerical results indicate that the algorithm is computationally simple, flexible, efficient and stable.
