Setting up CPLEX on a GBAR account: In order to run the small program provided for the second assignment it is necessary for the computer to be able to find CPLEX. This is done by adding:


ILOG_LICENSE_FILE=/appl/gcplex/ilm/access.ilm
export ILOG_LICENSE_FILE


to the "rc"-file of your favorite shell (so eg. add it to .bashrc if you are using bash).
