Hello,
My name is Kate, and I am here with a problem of whenever or not I should use VBA or ordinary formulas in Excel in order to do Vehicle Routing With Two-Dimensional Loading Constraints case. What I need is when I have coordinates of four bottom-right corners:
X Y
24 0
30 0
10 24
8 38
Even if you are not familiar with 2L-CVRP you may still help as what I want to know is: In reality I have set of 200 coordinates (x,y) and I need to search for lowest y (its (24,0) and (30,0)) then I choose one with maximum x ((30,0) in this case). Then if for some reason item cannot be packed there, then I shall go to next lowest y, which is 24 giving coordinate (10,24), if I cannot use this corner, I search for next lowest y with as high x as possible, etc. BTW I use Evolver in order to find satisfying solution, I do not know if that helps.
Help is highly appreciated as I am not able to move forward with this problem.
