Editing Modeling language (section)

==== Algebraic ====
[[Algebraic modeling language|Algebraic Modeling Languages]] (AML) are high-level programming languages for describing and solving high complexity problems for large scale mathematical computation (i.e. large scale optimization type problems). One particular advantage of AMLs like [[AIMMS]], [[AMPL]], [[General Algebraic Modeling System|GAMS]], [[Gekko (optimization software)|Gekko]], [[FICO Xpress|Mosel]], [[OPL Development Studio|OPL]], [[MiniZinc]], and [[OptimJ]] is the similarity of its syntax to the mathematical notation of optimization problems. This allows for a very concise and readable definition of problems in the domain of optimization, which is supported by certain language elements like sets, indices, algebraic expressions, powerful sparse index and data handling variables, constraints with arbitrary names. The algebraic formulation of a model does not contain any hints how to process it.
