Folio - Examples from 'Getting started'

Description
Different versions of a portfolio optimization problem:
  • modeling and solving a small LP problem (foliolp.cpp)
  • performing explicit initialization (folioinit.cpp)
  • data input from file, index sets (foliodata.cpp)
  • modeling and solving a small MIP problem with binary variables (foliomip1.cpp)
  • modeling and solving a small MIP problem with semi-continuous variables (foliomip2.cpp)
  • modeling and solving QP and MIQP problems (folioqp.cpp)
  • heuristic solution of a MIP problem (folioheur.cpp)
