cocoex.utilities.ObserverOptions

class documentation

class ObserverOptions(dict):

Constructor: ObserverOptions(options)

a dict with observer options which can be passed to the (C-based) Observer via the as_string property.

See http://numbbo.github.io/coco-doc/C/#observer-parameters for details on the available (C-based) options.

Details: When the Observer class in future accepts a dictionary also, this class becomes superfluous and could be replaced by a method default_observer_options similar to default_observers.

Method	`__init__`	set default options from global variables and input `options`.
Method	`update`	add or update options
Method	`update_gracefully`	update from each entry of parameter `options: dict` but only if key is not already present
Property	`as_string`	string representation which is accepted by `Observer` class, which calls the underlying C interface

def __init__(self, options={}): ¶

set default options from global variables and input options.

Default values are created "dynamically" based on the setting of module-wide variables SOLVER, suite_name, and budget.

def update(self, *args, **kwargs): ¶

add or update options

def update_gracefully(self, options): ¶

update from each entry of parameter options: dict but only if key is not already present

@property
as_string = ¶
