Opening .sol files

[Pradyumn Shukla]

Dear AMLP users,

Does anyone know how to open the .sol files that are generated by AMPL? For example, if I use BARON with numsol=10, I get 10 .sol files

Solution1.sol

Solution2.sol

...

Solution10.sol

and I want to extract the information in them (optimal variable etc.).

Many thanks.

There is a "solution" command that reads a .sol file and extracts the values from it. For example:

solution Solution1.sol;

Also you can write a loop to read a series of solution files, as in this example:

for {i in 1..10} {
solution ('Solution' & i & '.sol');
...
}

In place of ... you would put the statements that process the solution.
