Pulp library run error
Hello,
I have been successfully running a python program in the Jupyter environment.
I am now trying to run it with the Carnets app on IOS.
I have successfully installed the Pulp solver library ("requirement satisfied"), however I am still getting runtime errors.
Would appreciate any guidance how to solve?
Error output below.
thanks, Tony.

pulp relies on a binary executable (cbc) to do its work. It is installed by default on Carnets-with-Scipy, so I think the short answer is: "You need to switch to Carnets-with-Scipy" (both apps share the same iCloud folder, so you can move your work from one to the other).
The long answer is: the pip install process has probably confused your iPad (with an Arm64 processor, running a system named Darwin) with an M1 Mac (which also runs a system named Darwin, on an Arm64 processor... I understand the confusion). So it installed binaries and libraries for M1 Macs... which won't work on iOS because there is a protection against running executables downloaded from the internet.
Yes! Works first time with Carnets-with-Scipy. Thank you so much.
I'm very confused with Apple's directory structures and access, but I can get the program in a carnets-with... folder and it works!
Great program.
Thank you.
I'm happy that the problem is solved.
Yes, the directory access permissions is one of the most complicated things in iOS.
- by default, each app can only access its own files (the ones inside itself, and the ones inside its iCloud folder).
- if you open a file from an app (say, using the file browser in Carnets), then you grant the app permission to access that file.
- but you did not grant permission to access the directory around it, which is an issue if you have data files or want to write files.
- hence the "unlock folder" button on the top right corner.
Carnets and Carnets-with-Scipy being siblings, they share the same iCloud folder, so they can both read and write all files to that folder.
