- Can LS-OPT handle discrete variables?
- How can I ensure that LS-OPT replaces the variables in the input file by integer values?
- I defined a discrete variable with a list of integer values, but LS-OPT replaces the variables in the input file by e.g. 1. with a dot.
- What do I have to consider when running LS-OPT on Windows?
