K-Best Solutions Box |
The K-Best Solutions box on the Integer Solver tab:
is used to set the number of solutions desired as part of the K-Best solutions feature of LINGO's mixed integer solver. Whenever this value is greater than 1, say K, LINGO will will return up to K unique solutions to the model. These solutions will have the property that they are the next best solutions available in terms of their objective values. Less than K solutions may be returned if a sufficient number of feasible solutions do not exist. An example of the K-Best feature follows.
