90k but it's contract. Pretty sure my company will come up to at least 80k but salaried / benefits. Then the hardball starts.

But im still a terrible programmer / literal highschool dropout with only 10 months of actual industry experience working at a relatively unknown company. This would be very good for my career, even if it's less money.

normally contract to hire can suck but the money is great and it's red hat.

guys, how does branch and bound work in travelling salesman? i am hella confused right now
you somehow work out your lower bound and then????????

you encode your routes in a bunch of integer choices. usually "do i go to node x after visiting y other ones" in a nxn boolean matrix with a bunch of constraints that you can only visit one node at a time etc, as well as the constraints that each element can be only 0 or 1.

so for example, the path 1-2-3-4-5-6 will be the 6x6 identity matrix, whereas 6-5-4-3-2-1 it would be flipped horizontally (i.e. node 6 is first so x_{1,6} = 1 and the rest of row 1 = 0, and node 5 is second so x_{2,5} = 1 and the rest of row 2 = 0, etc.)

the way that branch and bound works, is that you solve WITHOUT the integer constraints so you get, say, A_{1,2} = 0.4

now the branching is, you have two possibilities (since in the actual value needs to be 0 or 1), either A_{1,2} = 0 or = 1. So now you have two models, one for each case. solve both nonintegerly. if one's lower bound is higher than your current best, then congrats you have a new current best. if not, recurse and split each one of those in half.

the case gets a little more interesting with nonboolean variables, as when you have x = 3.6 for some x that needs to eventually be integer, you branch into one with x <= 3 and one with x >= 4.

the trick is deciding WHICH noninteger-but-should-be-integer variable to branch on, and that's still an open problem as far as I know. i've seen some people use whichever is closest to a whole number, some pick randomly, some heuristic based etc.

tl;dr: say you have a constraint 'integer x' in your solution. solve WITHOUT that constraint to get a noninteger x. then you branch on whether to round x up or down.

this is literally my phd topic

sure but do it a year and you can easily jump directly to contracting at 120k+ just by said name recognition

60 per hour should be the minimum
