Yes, but shouldn't the results, may they be odd, be the same for all of us?
I agree this is odd, though we are probably using slightly different version (I'm still using F000).
Yes, I think its as of different program versions, I am on M030m Berend using M010. What results do you get fro my sheet? Results different from mine or Barend's?
I'm merely quoting the help file!
I see, I just looked it up.
"If you are solving for n variables, the solve block must have n equations."
I think thats an error in the help file because
- we can use minimize() also unconstrained withou a solve block
- the help distinguishes between equations and constraints later and all nonlinear examples are using no equation at all but just 2 constraints and also the last example in the linear programming quicksheet contains no equations, 9 constraints and 6 variables to "solve" for
- n equations for n variables may fix those variables and leave no room at all for optimization
- Prime's help states differently: "When you add constraints to an optimization problem, you must have fewer equality constraints than optimization variables."
