Description: # Python MIP (Mixed-Integer Linear Programming) Tools
        
        Python MIP is a collection of Python tools for the modelling and solution
        of Mixed-Integer Linear programs (MIPs). MIP syntax was inspired by
        [Pulp](https://github.com/coin-or/pulp) and the
        [Gurobi](http://www.gurobi.com) Python API. Porting Pulp and Gurobi models
        should be quite easy.
        
        Some of the main features of MIP are:
        
        * high level modelling: write your MIP models in Python as easily as in
          high level languages such as
          [MathProg](https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/GLPK/GMPL_(MathProg)): with
          operator overloading you can easily write linear expressions in Python;
        
        * multi solver: works with different MIP solvers; right now the commercial
          [Gurobi](http://www.gurobi.com/) solver and the open source COIN-OR
          Branch-&-Cut [CBC](https://projects.coin-or.org/Cbc) solver are supported;
          
        * fast: the Python MIP package calls directly the native dynamic loadable
          library of the installed solver using the modern python
          [ctypes](https://docs.python.org/3/library/ctypes.html) module; models
          are efficiently stored and optimized by the solver and MIP transparently
          handles all communication with your Python code;
        
        * completely written in modern statically typed Python 3;
        
        * solution pool: query the elite set of solutions found during the search;
        
        * mipstart: use a problem dependent heuristic to generate initial feasible
          solutions for the MIP search;
        
        * cut generation: write your cut generator in python and integrate it into
          the Branch-and-Cut search (currently only for Gurobi).
