QuadExpression Class

A quadratic expression that represents its data by a collection of terms. This is an abstract base class that is implement by different subclasses which use different data types to actually store the various terms in the expression.

Public methodStatic member Create()
Create a new empty quadratic expression.
Public methodStatic member Create(Double)
Create a new quadratic expression with the specified constant term.
Public method DeepCopy()
Get a deep copy of this expression.
Public method DeepCopy(Double)
Get a deep copy of this expression multiplied by a constant
Public method Div(Double)
Create a new expression that represents the quotient of this and arg.
(Inherited from Expression.)
Public method Div(Expression)
Create a new expression that represents the quotient of this and arg.
(Inherited from Expression.)
Public method Eq(Double)
Create an "equals" constraint with this expression as left-hand side.
(Inherited from AbstractExpression.)
Public method Eq(Expression)
Create an "equals" constraint with this expression as left-hand side.
(Inherited from AbstractExpression.)
Public method Equals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public method Evaluate
Compute the value of this expression with respect to the given solution Vector (which is not required to be feasible).
(Inherited from Expression.)
Public method Extract(Double, IPostfixExtractor)
Extract this expression into postfix notation.
(Inherited from Expression.)
Public method Extract(Double, XPRSprob.RowCreator)
Extract this expression into a row. This is for internal use only, you should never have to call this function explicitly.
(Inherited from Expression.)
Protected method Finalize
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public method Geq(Double)
Create a "greater than or equal" constraint with this expression as left-hand side.
(Inherited from AbstractExpression.)
Public method Geq(Expression)
Create a "greater than or equal" constraint with this expression as left-hand side.
(Inherited from AbstractExpression.)
Public method GetConstant
Get the constant value in this expression.
Public method GetConstantView
Get the constant value to which this expression evaluates. If this expression can be treated as a constant value then the function returns the constant value. If the expression cannot be treated as a constant then an exception is raised. In order to test whether the expression can be treated as constant, use function .GetMaxDegree() and check whether it returns 0.
(Inherited from AbstractExpression.)
Public method GetHashCode
Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetLinearView
Get a linear read-only view on this expression. If this expression can be treated as a linear expression then the function returns a readonly view on the linear terms (including the constant term if there is any). If the expression cannot be treated as a linear expression then an exception is raised. In order to test this expression can be treated as linear, use function .GetMaxDegree() and check whether it returns 0 or 1. In the returned System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair instances the constant term is indicated with a key of Optimizer.Objects.XpressProblem.NULL_VARIABLE. Note that depending on the actual expression class and its implementation, the terms may not be presented in the same order in which you added them. There may also be multiple elements with the same key (again depending on the implementation of the actual object).
(Inherited from AbstractExpression.)
Public method GetMaxDegree
Get the maximum degree of any of the terms/monomials that appear in the symbolic representation of all parenthesized sub-expressions are fully expanded. The maximum degree is
  • 0 for constant expressions.
  • 1 for linear expressions.
  • 2 for quadratic expressions.
  • Int32.MaxValue for function calls or formulas.
(Overrides Expression.GetMaxDegree().)
Public method GetQuadView
Get a quadratic read-only view on this expression. If this expression can be treated as a quadratic expression then the function returns a readonly view on the quadratic terms (including the constant term and linear terms if there are any). If the expression cannot be treated as a linear expression then an exception is raised. In order to test this expression can be treated as quadratic, use function .GetMaxDegree() and check whether it returns 0, 1, or 2. In the returned System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair instances the constant term is indicated with a key with two Optimizer.Objects.XpressProblem.NULL_VARIABLEs. Linear terms are represented by a QPair with Optimizer.Objects.XpressProblem.NULL_VARIABLE as second variable. Note that depending on the actual expression class and its implementation, the terms may not be presented in the same order in which you added them. There may also be multiple elements with the same key (again depending on the implementation of the actual object).
(Inherited from AbstractExpression.)
Public method GetRTTI
Get runtime type identification.
(Overrides Expression.GetRTTI().)
Public method GetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
