[Scip] The scip examples

[Stefan Heinz]

Hi Loreena,

The question is what do understand as "example".

Since you downloaded a binary you can use that to solve problems which are 
given in "lp", "mps", "cnf", "opb", and some other formats. If you want to 
know more about the use of the interactive shell of SCIP follow the link below 
and read the section "Using SCIP as a standalone MIP-Solver"
http://scip.zib.de/doc/html/FAQ.html

In the ZIBOPT Suite you find a directory "examples" these are examples which 
show the use of SCIP as a library.  All these example extend SCIP with one or 
more problem specific plugins. There are examples which illustrate the use of 
SCIP as a Column Generation Framework or extend SCIP with plugins to directly 
solve the N-Queens problem. To be able to run them you have to download the 
ZIBOPT Suite, unpack that tarball, follow the instruction in the INSTALL file 
to compile the ZIBOPT Suite. Afterwards you can move to one of the example 
folders of SCIP and compile them (see the INSATLL file in the corresponding 
directory). In each of the examples you can run "make doc" which generates a 
documentation for the example ("doc/html/index.html").

Cheers Stefan
