<p class="indent">The value that is used as a tolerance for the pivot element to
determine whether a value should be considered as 0.</p>
<p class="label"><b>Remarks</b></p>
<p>The <b>set_epspivot</b> function specifies the value that is used as a tolerance
for the pivot element to determine whether a value should be considered as 0.<br>
Floating-point calculations always result in loss of precision and rounding
errors. Therefore a very small value (example 1e-99) could be the result of
such errors and should be considered as 0 for the algorithm. <i>epspivot</i> specifies
the tolerance to determine if a pivot element should be considered as 0. If
abs(value) is less than this <i>epspivot</i> value it is considered as 0 and at
first instance rejected as pivot element. Only when no larger other pivot
element can be found and the value is different from 0 it will be used as pivot
element.<br>
The default <i>epspivot</i> value is 2e-7

<p class="label"><b>Example</b></p>
<pre><code>#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "lp_lib.h"
int main(void)
{
lprec *lp;
/* Create a new LP model */
lp = make_lp(0, 0);
if(lp == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Unable to create new LP model\n");
return(1);
}
set_epspivot(lp, 1.0e-5); /* sets epspivot to 1e-5 */
delete_lp(lp);
return(0);
}
</code></pre>
