Option to maximize an objective function?

[Martin-Jung]

Hi, this is an awesome and very useful package and so far works like a charm assuming I do everything right :)
I have a question with regards to the objective function. Unless I have missed it in the documentation or API, it seems it is only possible to minimize a certain objective. Of course one can transform the objective function, but for clarity it might be easier to formulate it as maximization problem in some cases.

This could be potentially be added simply as a parameter to add_objective?
E.g. m.add_objective(..., type = "max")

Hey @Martin-Jung, thank you for the kind words :) Indeed, I have been thinking about this quite often. It should be very straight-forward to implement a flexible objective sense. The cleanest way would be to create a dedicated objective class which can carry additional information. Let's leave the issue open, and eventually in the next weeks I can implement this :)

I have noticed it as well. It can be circumvented but it is suboptimal solution for us, professionals in finding optimum :D
