SparseSYM#

This command is used to construct a sparse symmetric system of equations which uses a row-oriented solution method.

system SparseSYM

Note

This solver works for negative definite system as well as positive definite.

Example#

The following example shows how to construct a SparseSYM system:

  1. Tcl Code

    system SparseSYM

  2. Python Code

    model.system('SparseSYM')
