Procedure GMP::Instance::FixColumns(GMP1, GMP2, solution, variableSet, round)

GMP::Instance::FixColumns

The procedure GMP::Instance::FixColumns sets the lower and upper bounds of a set of columns in a generated mathematical program (GMP1) equal to the level values of the corresponding columns in a solution of a second generated mathematical program (GMP2).

GMP::Instance::FixColumns(
     GMP1,         ! (input) a generated mathematical program
     GMP2,         ! (input) a generated mathematical program
     solution,     ! (input) a solution
     variableSet,  ! (input) a set of variables
     [round]       ! (optional) a binary scalar value
     )

Arguments

GMP1

An element in AllGeneratedMathematicalPrograms.

GMP2

An element in AllGeneratedMathematicalPrograms.

solution

An integer scalar reference to a solution in the solution repository of GMP2.

variableSet

A subset of AllVariables.

round

A binary scalar indicating whether the level values of the integer columns should be rounded to the nearest integer value before fixing the columns. The default is 0 (no rounding).

Return Value

The procedure returns 1 on success, or 0 otherwise.

Note

  • A column corresponding to a variable in variableSet that is not part of GMP1 will be ignored. This procedure will fail if a column corresponding to a variable in variableSet is not part of GMP2.

  • If the objective variable is part of the set variableSet then it will be ignored, i.e., the objective variable will not be fixed.

  • The same generated mathematical program can be used for GMP1 and GMP2.
