Discrete variables implementation in ga

Hello everyone

where can i find these files mentioned in the documentation section for Solving a Mixed Integer Engineering Design Problem Using the Genetic Algorithm (cantileverVolumeWithDisc.m, cantileverConstraintsWithDisc.m and cantileverMapVariables.m.) (https://se.mathworks.com/help/gads/solving-a-mixed-integer-engineering-design-problem-using-the-genetic-algorithm.html#d120e16157) ? or any other example where i can learn how to implement descrete set of variables in ga.

Thank you

Hi,

When you open the example in MATLAB using the command (View MATLAB Command) given in the top right pane of the documentation

openExample('globaloptim/steppedCantileverExample') 

The working folder will change to where the example is present in the MATLAB installation. There all the files used in the example are present.

Hope it helps!

Thanks Raunak.

Your tip helped me develop logic for solving single objective/multi objective discrete optimisation problems.
