I have an LP, formulated in the modelling language Zimpl, that I want to run on many instances, which are in different files.
Additionally, I want to change one parameter in this LP.
For a single call, my file test.zpl looks like this:
param FILE := "file1.dat"
param BOUND := 42
[test_body: Rest of LP]
Now I want to change those two parameters. SCIP has the -c option, to execute some command. But I cannot find by which command to achieve this. All parameter changes I found affect the algorithm, not the data.
The command change to change the problem does not seem to allow new parameters/variables.
In the end, I expect the solution to look something like
scip -c "[set my parameters]; read test_body.zpl; optimize; quit"
How do I set these problem parameters?
I am not aware of any commands that support the modification of model parameters as you wish. However, if you don't hardcode the value of param BOUND in the .zpl file (instead, move the value to the .dat file and use a proper read command in the model), then you could procede as follows:
Make a copy of your data file such that each copy contains a distinct value of param BOUND
Call scip.exe separately with each data file (you could also use a simple batch script)
I am trying to remotely control an oscilloscope from Agilent (DSO-X 3034A) using LabVIEW. I want to take a screen capture and store it on the computer. I tried the following:
The commands inside the string are:
:SAVE:FILename "temp.png";:SAVE:IMAGe:FACTors ON;:SAVE:IMAGe:FORMat PNG;:SAVE:IMAGe:INKSaver OFF;:SAVE:IMAGe:STARt;
I get the following errors:
Thank you

I managed to save the image on the oscilloscope. I am currently trying to move it and save it on the computer instead. I tried the following:
However after writing the "HARDcopy" commands I get the following error:
Your header is undefined. Refer to the "Serial Communications" documentation in order to see what the instrument is expecting in the header. You should right click your string constant and do "\ Codes Display" so that if the documentation calls for a \n character, you're not accidentally sending a \ character followed by an n character.
Query Unterminated means you're not terminating the query as the instrument expects. It looks like you have a newline, but assuming you're using windows, it's possible that the instrument doesn't want the extra \r that is there by default. Again, you'll have to refer to the documentation to be sure.
I have a little command line tool (written in Objective C, runs under MacOS) that tracks changes to folders and applies rules to files. This tool also informs the user about the progress. It says like:
"Found 3 files of type Z and applied rule"
"Found 6 files of typ x and applied rules"
Currently, the tool outputs the feedback as an endless list but this does not look very handy. What I'm after is a solution to only type the line per file type once and then update the number in the terminal if the tool finds another file of that type. Very similar to how "top" under Unix gives the feedback.
However, to do so, I'll need to move the cursor in the terminal backwards to the beginning of the line and also one or multiple lines backwards.
Is this possible and does anybody know, how to do so?
Thanks

I just wrote a java class to generate meshes from a cylinder list stored to a ply file. I tested the files with a hand generated list of 3 cylinders. The resulting file I can open both in Meshlab and Cloudcompare.
When I use the class in my real program I have to write a mesh for more than 13000 cylinders.
Cloudcompare gives me the following error : Reading error(no access right?)
Meshlab this one : error details, unexptected eof
I already checked if my ply file contains the exact number of vertices and faces defined in the header. I also assured, there are no nan (checked for 'n','a', etc in winedit) values contained.
I can reproduce the errors with my test file from the 3 hand made cylinder file by deleting the last line. But as mentioned earlier, I already checked if the line numbers are correct (might be an empty line not caught by my eyes though, as scrolling down half a million lines is impossible).
So are there any programs available to parse the ply file for errors? Open source tools would be appreciated here. Or are the files just to large? 436302 lines to be exact. I use ascii version of ply.
Found a non open source tool called nugraf, which provides information about the corrupted line numbers.
Java seems to print NAN with '?'. For this char i did not check, so problem seems to be solved and I can debug my java software now again.
I have a model of a heating process on Ansys Multiphysics, V11.
After running the simulation, I have a script to plot a temperature profile:
!---------------- POST PROCESSING -----------------------
/post1 ! tdatabase postprocessor
!---define profile temperature
path,s_temp1,2,,100 ! define a path
ppath,1,,dop/2,0,0 ! create a path point
ppath,2,,dop/2,1.5,0 ! create a path point
PDEF,surf_t1,TEMP, ,noav ! print a path
plpath,surf_t1 ! plot a path
What I now need, is to save the resulting path in a text file. I have already looked online for a solution, and found the following code to do it, which I appended after the lines above:
/OUTPUT,filename,extension
PRPATH,surf_t1
/OUTPUT
Ansys generates the file filename.extension but it is empty. I tried to place the OUTPUT command in a few locations in the script, but without any success.
I suspect I need to define something else, but I have no idea where to look, as Ansys documentation online is terribly chaotic, and all internet pages I've opened before writing this question are not better.
A final note: Ansys V11 is an old version of the software, but I don't want to upgrade it and fit the old model to the new software.
For the output of the simulation (which includes all calculation steps, and sub-steps description and node-by-node results) the output must be declared in the beginning of the code, and not in the postprocessing phase.
Declaring
/OUTPUT,filename,extension
in the preamble of the main script makes such that the output is stored in the right location, with the desired extension. At the end of the scripts, you must then declare
/OUTPUT
to reset the output file location for ANSYS.
The output to the PATH call made in the postprocessing script is however not printed in the file.
It is convenient to use
*CFOPEN,file,ext
*VWRITE,Vector(1,1).Vector(1,2)
(2F12.6)
*CFCLOSE
where Vector(1,1) is a two column array created by *DIM, and stores your data to output to file
As this is a special command, run it from file i.e. macro_output.mac
