Purpose
Sets the priority value of a user branching object.
Synopsis
`branchobj.setpriority(priority)`
Argument

priority | The new priority value to assign to the branching object, which must be a number from 0 to 1000. User branching objects are created with a default priority value of 500.

Further information
1. A candidate branching object with lowest priority number will always be selected for branching before an object with a higher number.
2. Priority values must be an integer from 0 to 1000. User branching objects and MIP entities are by default assigned a priority value of 500. Special branching objects, such as those arising from structural branches or split disjunctions are assigned a priority value of 400.
