math_opt

The code in this directory provides a generic way of accessing mathematical optimization solvers (sometimes called mathematical programming solvers), such as GLOP, CP-SAT, SCIP and Gurobi. In particular, a single API is provided to make these solvers largely interoperable.

New code should prefer MathOpt to MPSolver, as defined in linear_solver.h when possible.

MathOpt has client libraries in C++, Python, and Java that most users should use to build and solve their models. A proto API is also provided, but this is not recommended for most users.

See parameters.proto for the list of supported solvers.
