| 7 | TSPSG is intended to generate and solve Travelling Salesman Problem |
|---|
| 8 | (TSP) tasks. It uses Branch and Bound method for solving. Its input is |
|---|
| 9 | a number of cities and a matrix of city-to-city travel costs. The |
|---|
| 10 | matrix can be populated with random values in a given range (which is |
|---|
| 11 | useful for generating tasks). The result is an optimal route, its |
|---|
| 12 | price, step-by-step matrices of solving and a solving graph. The task |
|---|
| 13 | can be saved in an internal binary format and opened later. The result |
|---|
| 14 | can be printed or saved as PDF, HTML, or ODF. |
|---|
| 15 | |
|---|
| 16 | TSPSG may be useful for teachers to generate test tasks or just for |
|---|
| 17 | regular users to solve TSPs. Also, it may be used as an example of |
|---|
| 18 | using Branch and Bound method to solve a particular task. |
