Synopsis
start, rowind, rowcoef = problem.getCols(first=0, last=COLS-1)
Arguments
first 
First column in the range.
last 
Last column in the range.
Return value
start

rowind 
Integer array containing the row indices of the nonzero coefficents for each column.
rowcoef 
Double array containing the nonzero coefficient values.
