Hi all,
I read GAMS manual and find some unclear points.
I want to know what is the prod meaning in GAMS?
I know that it uses same sysntax as sum. But I am not sure what is it implying in economics.
Sum(j, x(j)) = x1+x2+x3+....xn
What prod(j, x(i, j)) is equivalent to?
Note that I see it uses with objective function.
obj.. UU =e= prod(i,x(i)**alpha(i));
Anyone, please help clarify me.
Thank you,
GAMS sum and prod syntax_ what different? Topic is solved
Re: GAMS sum and prod syntax_ what different?
Hi,
The product operation prod() represents the capital pi notation (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplic ... i_notation).
This is similar to the sum operation sum() representing the captal sigma notation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation ... a_notation)
I hope this helps!
