Equality Relative Tolerance

Type

Floating point number

Range

[0.0, 0.9]

Default

1e-13

For two real numbers x and y the result of the comparison x < y (or any of the other relational operators =, <>, >, >=, or <=) depends on two tolerances:

  • Equality Absolute Tolerance, and

  • Equality Relative Tolerance.

For a detailed description of these two tolerances and numerical comparison in AIMMS, you should read the corresponding section in the Language Reference.

Note

  • This option has no influence on the feasibility of constraints.

  • This option influences assignments in the following way; when a value is assigned to an identifier that is equal to the default of that identifier, equal within the above tolerances, the assignment will be ignored.
