Maximization Variant of SAO

This code contain the new variant of SAO for solving maximization problem

Smell Agent Optimization (SAO) is a new population based metaheuristic algorithm that mimics the intelligent behaviors of an agent trailing the source of a smell molecules.

This upload is a maximization version of SAO and it used to solved the LP programming problem (Problem 2) in Kamran Iqbal Textbook.
