/*
A:  MPS format was named after an early IBM LP product and has emerged
as a de facto standard ASCII medium among most of the commercial LP
codes.  Essentially all commercial LP codes accept this format, but if
you are using public domain software and have MPS files, you may need
to write your own reader routine for this.  It's not too hard.  The
main things to know about MPS format are that it is column oriented (as
opposed to entering the model as equations), and everything (variables,
rows, etc.) gets a name.  MPS format is described in more detail in
Murtagh's book, referenced in another section. Also,

ftp://softlib.cs.rice.edu/pub/miplib/mps_format

is a nice short introduction.

MPS is an old format, so it is set up as though you were using punch
cards, and is not free format. Fields start in column 1, 5, 15, 25, 40
and 50.  Sections of an MPS file are marked by so-called header cards,
which are distinguished by their starting in column 1.  Although it is
typical to use upper-case throughout the file (like I said, MPS has
long historical roots), many MPS-readers will accept mixed-case for
anything except the header cards, and some allow mixed-case anywhere.
The names that you choose for the individual entities (constraints or
variables) are not important to the solver; you should pick names that
are meaningful to you, or will be easy for a post-processing code to
read.

Here is a little sample model written in MPS format (explained in more
detail below):

NAME          TESTPROB
ROWS
 N  COST
 L  LIM1
 G  LIM2
 E  MYEQN
COLUMNS
    XONE      COST                 1   LIM1                 1

    YTWO      COST                 4   LIM1                 1
    YTWO      MYEQN               -1
    ZTHREE    COST                 9   LIM2                 1
    ZTHREE    MYEQN                1
RHS
    RHS1      LIM1                 5   LIM2                10
    RHS1      MYEQN                7
BOUNDS
 UP BND1      XONE                 4
 LO BND1      YTWO                -1
 UP BND1      YTWO                 1
ENDATA

means:

Optimize
 COST:    XONE + 4 YTWO + 9 ZTHREE

 LIM1:    XONE + YTWO <= 5
 LIM2:    XONE + ZTHREE >= 10
 MYEQN:   - YTWO + ZTHREE  = 7
