Example details
Let us now walk through the example, line by line, to understand how it achieves the desired result of optimizing the indicated model.
The example begins by importing Gurobi functions and classes:
import gurobipy as gp from gurobipy import GRBThe first line makes all Gurobi functions and classes available through a
gp. prefix (e.g., gp.Model()). The second
makes everything in class GRB available without a prefix (e.g.,
GRB.OPTIMAL). You can also start a program with
from gurobipy import * to remove the need for the gp.
prefix, but if your program uses multiple Python modules it is usually
preferred to access each through its own prefix.
In order for these commands to succeed, the Python application needs to know how to find the Gurobi functions and classes. Recall that you have three options for installing them.
