Hello,
I have a mixed integer model. GAMS outputs my binary variables as decimals. For this, I guess I need to change the integrality tolerance value. But I don't know how to do it. Do you have a code?
Changing tolerence
Re: Changing tolerence
There is no GAMS option for this. This is solver specific. Check the solver documentation of the used solved and set the option (if available). For example, for GAMS/Cplex this option is called epint. For most solvers the default is 1e-6 and is usually good enough. Reducing this option (e.g. epint) can have serious impact on performance.

Re: Changing tolerence
I'm new to use Gams. Sorry for that, cause I can not understand completely what you mean. My solver is CONOPT (non-linear problem effect).
If there is not a Gams option, how can I fix this tolerance problem?
For example, I have a binary variable. And solver gives a solution as 0.8. Thats a huge range for my problem. I want to change the tolerance as 0.
I will be very very appriaciate if you help me

Re: Changing tolerence
Conopt does not solve models with binary variables. -Michael
Re: Changing tolerence
Hi again Michael,
Did I say wrong which solver it is? Because the model works and does not give an error. but the result is not binary. Trying to solve it with MINLP.
So what i have to do for getting a sensible results?

Re: Changing tolerence
Hello,
Have you verified that the solver completed successfully? If the solver terminates prior to finding a solution (say, because of a time limit or iteration limit, or because it declares the model infeasible) then the level values returned by the solver for binary variables might not be close to 0 or 1.

Re: Changing tolerence
Hi Steve,
Thank you very much your attention.
I want to add my output panel here as attachment. I think showing it this way will make it clearer because I don't understand exactly why the iterations are terminated. But the infeasible option seems to be correct.
