Set paths to the executables of solvers only available in binary format.

In the current version salesperson does not implement the source code of some solvers including LKH and EAX, but calls the corresponding compiled executables. Since the CRAN guidelines do not permit shipping binary executables one has the download these by hand and tell the salesperson package about the file path. This is done by the solverPaths function.

solverPaths(paths = NULL)

Arguments

paths

paths	[`list`] Named list where each component indicates the path to the executable of the corresponding solver. Supported solvers at the momenet are lkh Implementation of the Lin-Kernigham heuristic. eax Implementation of the evolutionary EAX algorithm.

[list]
Named list where each component indicates the path to the executable of the corresponding solver. Supported solvers at the momenet are

lkh: Implementation of the Lin-Kernigham heuristic.
eax: Implementation of the evolutionary EAX algorithm.

Value

[list] List of pathes. Used internally by runTSPSolver.
