I added two arrays of equal dimensions to the set, FT and FS, and
initialized them in the data section
They hold the paired values for the initial assignments.
set FT :=    D1 B2 D2 B3 B1;
set FS :=     1  2  4  5  7;

I added the following statement to the model

s.t. init{f in FT,}: x[f,FS[f]] = 1;

the error is that FS cannot be subscripted.

Basic question remains on how to specify the initial assignment constraint
in the model section
and how to specify the pairs of initial assigments in the data section.
Thanks




if B1 is a set, you probably want to write:

s.t. {b in B1} c1 : x[b,21] = 1;
# or
s.t. c2 : x["b",21] = 1; # where "b" is a member of B1

Best regards
