Building and running the examples
Python is an interpreted language, so no explicit compilation step is required to run the examples. For Windows platforms, you can simply type the following in the Gurobi Python example directory (<installdir>/examples/python):
gurobi.bat mip1.py
If you are a Python user and wish to use Gurobi from within your own Python environment, we recommend that you use the Anaconda Python distribution. Anaconda includes a number of very useful packages, and the Gurobi Anaconda package simplifies the installation process.
You can also install the gurobipy module directly into other
Python environments. The steps for doing this depend on your
platform.
On Windows, you can double-click on the pysetup
program in the Gurobi <installdir>/bin directory. This program
will prompt you for the location of your Python installation; it
handles all of the details of the installation.
Once gurobipy is successfully installed, you can type
python mip1.py (more generally, you can type
from gurobipy import * in your Python environment).
