Package glpk contains Go bindings for GLPK (GNU Linear Programming Kit).
The binding is not complete but enough for my purposes. Fill free to contact me (email at the end) if there is some part of GLPK that you would like to use and it is not yet covered by the glpk package.
Package glpk is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
First install GLPK (GNU Linear
Programming Kit). Package glpk is known to work with GLPK v4.54
(available in Debian Sid) and v4.45 (available in Debian Wheezy). On
Debian GLPK can be installed by installing the package libglpk-dev.
To install glpk package run
go get github.com/lukpank/go-glpk/glpk
Documentation for glpk package is available on godoc.org.
This example is a Go rewrite of the PyGLPK example from http://tfinley.net/software/pyglpk/discussion.html (Which is a Python reimplementation of a C program from GLPK documentation).
package main
import "fmt"
import "github.com/lukpank/go-glpk/glpk"
func main() {
lp := glpk.New()
lp.SetProbName("sample")
lp.SetObjName("Z")
lp.SetObjDir(glpk.MAX)
lp.AddRows(3)
for i := 0; i < 3; i++ {
name := fmt.Sprintf("%c", 'p'+i)
lp.SetRowName(i+1, name)
}
lp.SetRowBnds(1, glpk.UP, 0, 100.0)
lp.SetRowBnds(2, glpk.UP, 0, 600.0)
lp.SetRowBnds(3, glpk.UP, 0, 300.0)
lp.AddCols(3)
for i := 0; i < 3; i++ {
name := fmt.Sprintf("x%d", i)
lp.SetColName(i+1, name)
lp.SetColBnds(i+1, glpk.LO, 0.0, 0.0)
}
lp.SetObjCoef(1, 10.0)
lp.SetObjCoef(2, 6.0)
lp.SetObjCoef(3, 4.0)
ind := []int32{0, 1, 2, 3}
mat := [][]float64{
{0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0},
{0, 10.0, 4.0, 5.0},
{0, 2.0, 2.0, 6.0}}
for i := 0; i < 3; i++ {
lp.SetMatRow(i+1, ind, mat[i])
}
lp.Simplex(nil)
fmt.Printf("%s = %g", lp.ObjName(), lp.ObjVal())
for i := 0; i < 3; i++ {
fmt.Printf("; %s = %g", lp.ColName(i+1), lp.ColPrim(i+1))
}
fmt.Println()
lp.Delete()
}The output of this example is:
GLPK Simplex Optimizer, v4.54
3 rows, 3 columns, 9 non-zeros
* 0: obj = 0.000000000e+00 infeas = 0.000e+00 (0)
* 2: obj = 7.333333333e+02 infeas = 0.000e+00 (0)
OPTIMAL LP SOLUTION FOUND
Z = 733.3333333333333; x0 = 33.333333333333336; x1 = 66.66666666666666; x2 = 0
The above problem in the CPLEX LP format has the follow form
\* Problem: sample *\
Maximize
Z: + 10 x0 + 6 x1 + 4 x2
Subject To
p: + x2 + x1 + x0 <= 100
q: + 5 x2 + 4 x1 + 10 x0 <= 600
r: + 6 x2 + 2 x1 + 2 x0 <= 300
End
let us save it into sample.lp file. Then we can do the computation
analogous to the previous example with the following shorter program:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/lukpank/go-glpk/glpk"
)
func main() {
lp := glpk.New()
defer lp.Delete()
lp.ReadLP(nil, "sample.lp")
if err := lp.Simplex(nil); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Printf("%s = %g", lp.ObjName(), lp.ObjVal())
for i := 0; i < 3; i++ {
fmt.Printf("; %s = %g", lp.ColName(i+1), lp.ColPrim(i+1))
}
fmt.Println()
}Analogously you can read from a file in MPS or GPLK LP/MIP formats
using ReadMPS or ReadProb methods. You can also write the problem
instance in MPS, CPLEX LP or GPLK LP/MIP formats by the corresponding
WriteMPS, WriteLP and WriteProb methods.
The output of this example is:
