Read and write problems to and from standard formats MPS and LP Description This example shows how to read and write from and to MPS and LP files. Both formats are standard formats and can be input into most optimization solvers. While the MPS file preserves the order of the columns of a matrix, the LP format is more human-readable and suitable for debug purposes. Further explanation of this example: Xpress R Reference Manual

The #' number of rows, columns, and nonzeros is as expected. ## ----Print the XPRSprob------------------------------------------------------- print(p) #' #' Now, let's write this problem as an MPS file. ## ----Write the Problem as MPS------------------------------------------------- writeprob(p, "flp.mps") #' #' #' By specifying the flag 'l', we can also write LP files to disk. Actually, this #' is the way we created 'flp.lp' in the first place. Let's instead write the #' presolved model to disk in LP format. For this, we set the LP Iteration limit to #' 0, which effectively stops the solution process immediately after presolving. #' #' We interrupt the Optimizer during the Root LP to have access to the presolved #' problem #' ## ----Write The Presolved Problem as LP---------------------------------------- setintcontrol(p, xpress:::LPITERLIMIT, 0L); mipoptimize(p) # note the use of the flag 'l' writeprob(p, "flp_presolved.lp", "l") #' #' When we inspect the resulting LP file, we see that bounds have been derived for #' all the connection variables: #' ## ----Inspect the Presolved Problem-------------------------------------------- cat(readLines("flp_presolved.lp"), sep = "\n") #' #' This already concludes the example how to read and write from MPS and LP files. #' Here is the content of the MPS file. #' ## ----Display the content of the MPS file-------------------------------------- cat(readLines("flp.mps"), sep = "\n") #' #' #' | |||||||||||
