How to Run the Jupyter Notebook Modeling Example

• To run the example the first time, choose “Runtime” and then click “Run all”.
• All the cells in the Jupyter Notebook will be executed.
• The example will install the gurobipy package, which includes a limited Gurobi license that allows you to solve small models.
• You can also modify and re-run individual cells.
• For subsequent runs, choose “Runtime” and click “on “Restart and run all”.
• The Gurobi Optimizer will find the optimal solution of the modeling example.
