XPRBgetvarrng

XPRBgetvarrng


Purpose
Get ranging information for a variable.
Synopsis
double XPRBgetvarrng(XPRBvar var, int rngtype);
Arguments
var 
BCL reference to a variable.
rngtype 
The type of ranging information sought. This is one of:
XPRB_UPACT 
upper activity (= the activity level [solution value] that would result from a cost coefficient increase from the input cost to the upper cost XPRB_UCOST—assuming a minimization problem—ignoring the upper bound on this variable);
XPRB_LOACT 
lower activity (= the activity level [solution value] that would result from a cost coefficient decrease from the input cost to the lower cost XPRB_LCOST—assuming a minimization problem—ignoring the upper bound on this variable);
XPRB_UUP 
upper unit cost (= the change in the objective function per unit of change in the activity up to the upper activity XPRB_UPACT);
XPRB_UDN 
lower unit cost (= the change in the objective function per unit of change in the activity down to the lower activity XPRB_LOACT)
XPRB_UCOST 
upper cost;
XPRB_LCOST 
lower cost.
Return value
Ranging information of the required type.
Example
This example retrieves the upper cost value for a variable.
XPRBprob expl2;
XPRBvar x1;
double ucval;
expl2 = XPRBnewprob("example2");
x1 = XPRBnewvar(expl2, XPRB_UI, "abc3", 1, 100);
 ...
XPRBlpoptimize("expl2, "");
ucval = XPRBgetvarrng(x1, XPRB_UCOST);
Further information
1. This method can only be used after solving an LP problem. Ranging information for MIP problems can be obtained by fixing all discrete variables to their solution values (using XPRSfixglobals) and re-solving the resulting LP problem.
2. For non-basic variables, the unit costs are always the (absolute) values of the reduced costs.
