Simple Problem Variable Specification Equation Specification Model Statement Solve Statement
GAMS and Algebra • Suppose xi is defined with three elements • Algebra: • GAMS: z=SUM(i,x(i)); • i: set in GAMS • Z: a scalar or variable • X(i): parameter or variable defined over i • The sum automatically treats all cases of i
STEPS • SET definitions • Data Entry • Variable Specification • Equation Specification a) Declaration b) Algebraic structure 5. Model Statement 6. Solve Statement
