maximize, minimize


Purpose
Maximize/minimize the current NL problem.
Synopsis
procedure maximize(obj:linctr)
procedure maximize(nlobj:nlctr)
procedure minimize(obj:linctr)
procedure minimize(nlobj:nlctr)
Arguments
obj 
Linear objective function
nlobj 
Nonlinear objective function
Example
The following maximizes the nonlinear objective Obj.
uses "nlsolv"
declarations
 x,y,z: mpvar
 Obj: nlctr
end-declarations
...
Obj:= x*y + z^3	  	
maximize(Obj)  
Further information
This procedure calls a solver to maximize/minimize the current problem (excluding all hidden constraints) using the given constraint as objective function. Before this procedure is called, a solver must have been chosen (using either parameter NL_solver or NL_solverpath).
