The CLP Procedure

Solution Data Set

In order to solve a standard (nonscheduling) type CSP, you need to specify a solution data set by using the OUT= option in the PROC CLP statement. The solution data set contains all the solutions that have been determined by the CLP procedure. You can specify an upper bound on the number of solutions by using the SOLNS= option in the PROC CLP statement. If you prefer that CLP determine all possible solutions instead, you can specify the FINDALLSOLNS option in the PROC CLP statement.

The solution data set contains as many decision variables as have been defined in the call to PROC CLP. Every observation in the solution data set corresponds to a solution to the CSP. If a constraint data set has been specified, then any variable formats and variable labels from the constraint data set carry over to the solution data set.


Note: This procedure is experimental.
