Relationship of the Python Application and New View

The finished FICO® Xpress Insight app will enable a user to enter a preferred set of values and initiate optimization based on these figures. It will also display the results of the optimization performed in a second section.
The Python application, when used in Xpress Insight, consists of two parts:
  • A Python application file that integrates the Python Module.
  • A VDL file that provides the Xpress Insight interface.

We have created the Python application file application.py. We will now develop a VDL file that Insight requires to allow the user to change the values submitted to the Python optimization model.
