NAME

       cbc - Cbc mixed integer programming solver

SYNOPSIS

       cbc [ options ] filename
       cbc [ commands ]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the cbc command.

       cbc -- Cbc (Coin-or branch and cut) is an open-source mixed integer programming solver written in C++.

OPTIONS

       When  no  options are given cbc enters the interactive command line mode.  Otherwise the program enters a
       batch mode, for which a summary of options is included below.  Note that the  order  of  options  in  the
       command  line of the cbc executable matter The command line of the cbc executable is parsed as if it were
       in the interactive mode. The take-away is that if your using the command line, and things aren't  working
       as  you  think  they  should, try ordering the commands in the sequence you'd use if you were interactive
       mode.

       For a complete description, see /usr/share/doc/coinor-libcbc-doc.

       -      Read input from stdin instead of filename

       -csv   The option "-csv <filename>" causes cbc to print one line of key output statics in comma separated
              format in a file named <filename>. This option isn't currently included in the  list  of  commands
              given by the "?" command in interactive mode.

       -threads <num_threads>
              Run cbc in parallel using <num_threads> many CPUs

INTERACTIVE MODE

       In interactive mode one command per line is expected (no leading -).

       ?      lists all available commands

       <command>?
              gives list of possibilities, if only one + explanation

       <command>??
              adds explanation, if only one fuller help

       <command>
              without value (where expected) gives current value

       <command> <value>
               sets value
