is_scaletype

# is_scaletype Returns if scaling type specified in scaletype is active. unsigned char is_scaletype(lprec *lp, int scaletype); Return Value is_scaletype returns if scaling mode specified in scaletype is active. Parameters lp Pointer to previously created lp model. See return value of make_lp, copy_lp, read_lp, read_LP, read_mps, read_freemps, read_MPS, read_freeMPS, read_XLI scaletype
SCALE_EXTREME (1) | Scale to convergence using largest absolute value
SCALE_RANGE (2) | Scale based on the simple numerical range
SCALE_MEAN (3) | Numerical range-based scaling
SCALE_GEOMETRIC (4) | Geometric scaling
SCALE_CURTISREID (7) | Curtis-reid scaling
Remarks The is_scaletype function returns if scaling mode specified in scaletype. This can influence numerical stability considerably. It is advisable to always use some sort of scaling. set_scaling must be called before solve is called. SCALE_EXTREME, SCALE_RANGE, SCALE_MEAN, SCALE_GEOMETRIC, SCALE_CURTISREID are the possible scaling algorithms. Example
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include "lp_lib.h"

    int main(void)
    {
      lprec *lp;
      int scaletype;

      /* Create a new LP model */
      lp = make_lp(0, 0);
      if(lp == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "Unable to create new LP model\n");
        return(1);
      }

      scaletype = is_scaletype(lp, SCALE_MEAN);

      delete_lp(lp);
      return(0);
    }
