<paragraph xml-lang="en-US" id="par_id0603200910430821" role="paragraph" l10n="NEW">There is also a list of constraints you can use to restrict the possible range of solutions or to penalize certain conditions. However, in case of the evolutionary solvers DEPS and SCO, these constraints are also used to specify bounds on the variables of the problem. Due to the random nature of the algorithms, it is <emph>highly recommended</emph> to do so and give upper (and in case "Assume Non-Negative Variables" is turned off also lower) bounds for all variables. They don't have to be near the actual solution (which is probably unknown) but should give a rough indication of the expected size (0 ≤ var ≤ 1 or maybe -1000000 ≤ var ≤ 1000000).</paragraph>
<paragraph xml-lang="en-US" id="par_id0603200910430873" role="paragraph" l10n="NEW">Bounds are specified by selecting one or more variables (as range) on the left side and entering a numerical value (not a cell or a formula) on the right side. That way you can also choose one or more variables to be <emph>Integer</emph> or <emph>Binary</emph> only.</paragraph>
