Number of Best Solutions

Type : Integer

Range : {0..1000000}

Default : 0

This option determines the number of best solutions to be found. All solutions will be stored in the solution repository of the mathematical program. At position 1 of that solution repository the best solution is stored, at position 2 the second best solution, and so on. Solutions in the solution repository can be send to the model identifiers by using the AIMMS routine GMP::Solution::SendToModel. For example, with

GMP::Solution::SendToModel( ‘frac1’, 2 );

the second best solution for the mathematical program ‘frac1’ will be send to the model identifiers.

Each point results from a Knitro solve from a different starting point, and must satisfy the absolute and relative feasibility tolerances. Points are distinct if they differ in objective value or some component by the value of option Solution Distance .

This option has only effect if the option Multistart is switched on.
