In this paper, we consider numerical methods for the linear complementarity problem (LCP). By introducing a positive diagonal parameter matrix, the LCP is transformed into an equivalent fixed-point equation and the equivalence is proved. Based on such equation, the general fixed-point (GFP) method with two cases are proposed and analyzed when the system matrix is a $ P $-matrix. In addition, we provide several concrete sufficient conditions for the proposed method when the system matrix is a symmetric positive definite matrix or an $ H_{+} $-matrix. Meanwhile, we discuss the optimal case for the proposed method. The numerical experiments show that the GFP method is effective and practical.
