Introduction to Optimization


The OPTMODEL Procedure

The OPTMODEL procedure, a general purpose optimization modeling language, can also be used for concisely modeling nonlinear programming problems. Within OPTMODEL you can declare a nonlinear optimization model, pass it directly to various solvers, and review the solver result. For more details, see ChapterĀ 5: The OPTMODEL Procedure.

You can solve many different types of nonlinear programming problems with PROC OPTMODEL using its nonlinear solver functionality. For more details about the nonlinear programming solver, see ChapterĀ 10: The Nonlinear Programming Solver.
