[Help-glpk] Using glpk with open office spreadsheets

[Nigel Galloway]

It is possible to use glpk_vfs to enable glpsol to interwork with 
an open office spreadsheet. Open office is not required to run the 
following examples, but obviously if you wish to change them or use 
your own it is. For convenience the examples are displayed in 
F.html.tar.bz2.

The examples are run with:

glpsol --math KuKu.mathprog --data glpk_vfs/<sheet name>

Attached:

KuKu.Sudoku.ods and KuKu.FutoshickiFicki.ods the open office spreadsheets in 
ods.zip

KuKu_vfs.rb the base class for interworking with the spreadsheets in 
KuKu_vfs.zip

FutoshickiFicki_vfs.rb and Sudoku_vfs.rb classes which extend 
KuKu_vfs.rb to understand the content of the spreadsheets in KuKu_vfs.zip

KuKu.mathprog a mathprog model for solving the problems

F.html.tar.bz2 Example output from running the software with pictures.



I'll assume everyone understands Sudoku. For FutoshickiFicki the 
numbers 1 to 5 have to be arranged in each row and column such that 
cells attached by / and \ have the same value. '<' '>' 'A' and 'V' 
indicate that the cell at the pointy end has to be less than the 
other.
