change nonlinear objective variables to use inequalities #23

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Currently, when a nonlinear objective function is passed to solver.minimize or 
solver.maximize, a new variable is added to the solver equal to that 
expression.  This is because SCIP can only optimize a linear objective 
function.  Instead of setting it equal, we should be using an inequality as 
this may give better performance in some circumstances.
