# set_sense Set objective function sense. void set_sense(lprec *lp, unsigned char maximize); Return Value set_sense has no return value. Parameters lp Pointer to previously created lp model. See return value of make_lp, copy_lp, read_lp, read_LP, read_mps, read_freemps, read_MPS, read_freeMPS, read_XLI maximize Set sense to minimize (FALSE) or maximize (TRUE). Remarks The set_sense function sets the objective sense. The default of lp_solve is to minimize, except for read_lp, read_LP where the default is to maximize. Example
    #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_sense(lp, TRUE); /* set object sense to maximize */

      delete_lp(lp);
      return(0);
    }
