Function GMP::Coefficient::Get(GMP, row, column)

# GMP::Coefficient::Get

The function GMP::Coefficient::Get retrieves a (linear) coefficient in a generated mathematical program.

GMP::Coefficient::Get(
GMP,            ! (input) a generated mathematical program
row,            ! (input) a scalar reference or row number
column          ! (input) a scalar reference or column number
)


## Arguments

GMP

An element in AllGeneratedMathematicalPrograms.

row

A scalar reference to an existing row in the model or the number of that row in the range $$\{ 0 .. m-1 \}$$ where $$m$$ is the number of rows in the matrix.

column

A scalar reference to an existing column in the model or the number of that column in the range $$\{ 0 .. n-1 \}$$ where $$n$$ is the number of columns in the matrix.

## Return Value

The value of the specified coefficient in the generated mathematical program.

Note

In case the generated mathematical program is nonlinear, this function will return 0 if the column is part of a nonlinear term in the row. However, if the row is pure quadratic then this function will return the linear coefficient value for a quadratic column.

## Example

Consider a GMP containing a constraint e1 with definition 2*x1 + 3*x2 + x2^3 = 0. Then GMP::Coefficient::Get(GMP,e1,x1) will return 2. Because column x2 is part of the nonlinear term x2^3, GMP::Coefficient::Get(GMP,e1,x2) will return 0.
