File Type 5 AMPL Model File
Developer by: Bell Laboratories Category: Data Files Format: Text

Model file used to compute complex, large-scale mathematical problems; contains variables (parameters, and sets), a function, and constraints written in AMPL (A Mathematical Programming Language) code; appears as linear, nonlinear, quadratic, mixed-integer, and other problem types; includes comments, which must be prefaced with a "#."

To load your MOD file, e.g., example.mod, type model example.mod; if it's located in your "amplcml" folder with your sw.exe file. If your example.mod file is located in a different location you'll need to include the path. Type something like this (if using Windows):model C:Usersexample.mod;. After successfully loading your MOD file, type solve; to solve the problem. Then if you want to display any of your results, type display and whatever results you want displayed. Remember to always end your line with a ;.

An example of a MOD file:

var XB;
var XC;
maximize Profit: 25 * XB + 30 * XC;
subject to Time: (1/200) * XB + (1/140) * XC
