RE: next question - find some element of a set |

Here is more clarification. I have a set S and an array cost[]. I wanted
to get a cost -- any cost -- that is found in the array cost. I didn't want
to have to specify in the data section a sample element of S, I just wanted to
use GMPL to find one. In the example below, I want to find SOME_ELEMENT_IN_S
as an index to the array cost[].
set S;
param cost{S};
param some_valid_cost := cost[SOME_ELEMENT_IN_S];
data;
param : S : cost :=
A 100
B 105
C 198
;

Hi!
I'm not exactly sure, what you would like to do, but you could just say, but
maybe this answers your question:
set sports;
param favorite symbolic in sports;
var train{sports} >=0;
s.t. foobar: train[favorite] >=2;
minimize work: sum{f in sports} train[f];
data;
set sports := running cycling swimming;
param favorite := 'running';
end;
So put ' around the name for a symbolic parameter, and also don't put comma
between set elements.
I hope this helped. If not, please clarify your situation.
All the best,
Mate
