Description

PUT statements are used to generate the linear programming
matrix of the problem TRNSPORT (SEQ=1) in standard industry
format, the MPS file. The first part of this file is taken from
the model TRNSPORT. This is not to suggest writing MPS files with
GAMS but a way to demonstrate the use of PUT statements.

Small Model of Type : GAMS
