problem.copy

problem.copy


Purpose
Obtains a copy of a problem.
Synopsis
p = problem.copy ()
Example

p = xpress.problem ()
x = [xpress.var () for _ in range (10)]
p.addVariable (x)
p.addConstraint (xpress.Sum (x) <= 10)
p2 = p.copy () # add a constraint that won't be in p
p2.addConstraint (xpress.Sum (x) >= 6) # x[0] is deleted from p2
p2.delVariable (x[0])
Further information
The objects of the copied problem (variables, constraints, SOSs) are the same as the source problem, i.e., the one of which a copy was created. Therefore, any object that existed in the source problem can be addressed and used in the copy problem.
