Dive deep into sample models, built with our Python API.
Market Sharing
In this example, we’ll show you how to solve a goal programming problem that involves allocating the retailers to two divisions of a company in order to optimize the trade-offs of several market sharing goals. You’ll learn how to create a mixed integer linear programming model of the problem using the Gurobi Python API and how to find an optimal solution to the problem using the Gurobi Optimizer.
This model is example 13 from the fifth edition of Model Building in Mathematical Programming by H. Paul Williams on pages 267-268 and 322-324. This modeling example is at the beginner level, where we assume that you know Python and that you have some knowledge about building mathematical optimization models. You may also want to check out the documentation of the Gurobi Python API.
