' This example formulates and solves the following simple QP model:
'
'     minimize    x^2 + x*y + y^2 + y*z + z^2 + 2 x
'     subject to  x + 2 y + 3 z >= 4
'                 x +   y       >= 1
'                 x, y, z non-negative
'
'   It solves it once as a continuous model, and once as an integer model.
