C Interface

This section will work through a simple C example in order to illustrate the use of the Gurobi C interface. The example builds a simple Mixed Integer Programming model, optimizes it, and outputs the optimal objective value. This section assumes that you are already familiar with the C programming language. If not, a variety of books are available for learning the language (for example, The C Programming Language, by Kernighan and Ritchie).

Our example optimizes the following model:

maximize	x	+	y	+	2 z
subject to	x	+	2 y	+	3 z		4
	x	+	y				1
	x, y, z binary
