Feb 18, 2023 at 16:55 comment added Sutanu Majumdar Ok as I said define a new variable $z$ and for every $ x$ create 2 new constraints as in the answer. Basically you are saying that variable $z$ should be greater than every $x$ no matter $x$ is positive/negative. Then minimize z.
Feb 18, 2023 at 16:06 comment added user1868607 yes, i think i know the basics of linear optimization. But it is not clear to me how to transform $\|x\|_{\infty}$ into a linear objective.
Feb 18, 2023 at 14:27 comment added Sutanu Majumdar I will try & post a code using Gurobi. It will be in python, on a similar toy problem
Feb 18, 2023 at 14:25 comment added Sutanu Majumdar Are you aware of objectives, constraints? There are some books like Winston's Operations Research to start with
Feb 18, 2023 at 9:52 comment added user1868607 I did not understand how can I transform the problem into a linear optimization problem. Could you be more specific?
Feb 17, 2023 at 17:15 comment added Sutanu Majumdar Google Colab, you can install import docplex & gurobi and may be others as well.
Feb 17, 2023 at 16:55 comment added user1868607 what's the easiest way to use these? is there some online platform?

Feb 17, 2023 at 16:05 comment added RobPratt SAS can also automatically linearize it: go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/v_036/casmopt/…
Feb 17, 2023 at 15:52 comment added Sutanu Majumdar @joni, I admit never used IPOPT but often see it with COIN-OR Project. I get it uses Interior Points method, that facilitates solving large scale problems. But doesn't it also tackle discrete problems?

Feb 17, 2023 at 15:44 comment added Sutanu Majumdar Ok I misread the integer coeff as integer variable. I will edit it. Thanks for pointing it out.
Feb 17, 2023 at 15:43 comment added joni Ipopt is a solver for large-scale (sparse) nonlinear programming, not for MIPs.
Feb 17, 2023 at 15:43 comment added Sune A solver capable of solving linear programs should be enough, right? There are no integer variables in the model
