Hello,
I need some help with an optimization problem, which I am programming in the last few days. I already asked a general question, which helped me a lot, and I was able to program most of my optimization problem. Here is the link for the other question:
The problem I have now, is as follows: I have three columns (Name, Value 1, Value 2) which are optimizied, to yield a maximum sum for column 2, while staying under the sum of 50.000 in column 3. The outcome of the problem are 8 names from column one.
I know want to add categories to the names. I have five categories for the 200 Names.(category 1,2,3,4 or 5). Every name is assigned in one or two categories. I now want to have an optimal solution for my problem, while at least one of the eight names is from every category.
I looked into the documentation, but wasn't able to find a possibility to add the constraint to my problem. Does anyone has an (simple)idea to solve this problem? I am looking forward to your answers!
