[FIXED] Where to download WriteLP file in Google Colab

Issue

I am running a big Optimization program . i cant print model directly in console to see the correctness of the constraints.hence i am writing the model to a .lp file in google colab. but i don't know where to download the file. programs running without error but not showing files.

Solution

You can use files.download to download a file to your local file system.

from google.colab import files
import pulp

prob = pulp.LpProblem("test", pulp.LpMinimize)
....
prob.writeLP("example.lp")
files.download('example.lp')

You can refer to the documentation for additional info.
