Hi Guido,

Thank you for the reply.

*// That is what the element constraint is used for (you'll find it in the
documentation).  It works directly on variables, so you don't have to solve
the sub-problem on x first.*

I am not sure I follow your point. Let me clarify the question, there are
two integer variable arrays Array1[] and Array2[]. Both the arrays are
constrained in different ways individually. Then, as a last constraint
Array1[] needs to be constrained using the values assigned to Array2[]. So,
do u think the following constraint would work or not?

rel(*this, Array2[Array1[some_index].val()] + (something) <=
Array2[another_index]);


It doesn't give any errors on compilation but I haven't finished the rest
of the model yet to be 100% sure if it works correctly or not.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Wajid
