Q
Why is it useful to create a separate evaluation and optimization file?
What is a Evaluation file?
A
Evaluation file:
- Evaluates how good an existing solution is without complex or time consuming calculations
- Especially helpful for complex problems
–>the evalution file does not find the optimal soolution using LP solver because the model is non-linear

What is a optimization file?
A
Optimization file:
- contains a linearized model that is neede for the Excel Solver
