% This example reads an LP model from a file and solves it.
% If the model can be solved, then it finds the smallest positive variable,
% sets its upper bound to zero, and resolves the model two ways:
% first with an advanced start, then without an advanced start
% (i.e. 'from scratch').

% Read model
