Hi,

I have a program which uses finite sets to schedule a college timetable. The solution is stored in a list of finite sets, each set representing a timetabled class and containing the students allocated to that class. What I want is some form of progress indicator to reflect the progress of the solution. My initial thought was something along the lines of 'FS.reflect.unknown' to get a total of undetermined values in each set, then total them and use the final total displayed in a text box. The total should, I imagine, keep reducing in general until it reaches zero.
Would this badly affect the total run-time for the solution though?
The total solution at the moment takes around 20 seconds so a 50% increase in run-time wouldn't be too bad. Can anyone suggest a simpler method? The progress indicator doesn't have to be precise, just a rough guide to the time left. But it mustn't

Regards

Mark Richardson
