qiskit.optimization.problems.LinearConstraint

class LinearConstraint(quadratic_program, name, linear, sense, rhs)

GitHub

Representation of a linear constraint.

Parameters

  • quadratic_program (Any) – The parent quadratic program.
  • name (str) – The name of the constraint.
  • linear (Union[ndarray, spmatrix, List[float], Dict[Union[int, str], float]]) – The coefficients specifying the linear constraint.
  • sense (ConstraintSense) – The sense of the constraint.
  • rhs (float) – The right-hand-side of the constraint.

__init__

__init__(quadratic_program, name, linear, sense, rhs)

Parameters

  • quadratic_program (Any) – The parent quadratic program.
  • name (str) – The name of the constraint.
  • linear (Union[ndarray, spmatrix, List[float], Dict[Union[int, str], float]]) – The coefficients specifying the linear constraint.
  • sense (ConstraintSense) – The sense of the constraint.
  • rhs (float) – The right-hand-side of the constraint.

Methods
