Getting Started with the Optimization Tool
Introduction
The Optimization Tool is a GUI for solving optimization problems.
With the Optimization Tool, you select a solver from a list and set
up your problem visually. If you are familiar with the optimization
problem you want to solve, the Optimization Tool lets you select a
solver, specify the optimization options, and run your problem. You
can also import and export data from the MATLAB workspace, and
generate M-files containing your configuration for the solver and
options.
