The computer program listed below seeks to solve the following problem:
Minimize
25000
sigma (ABS(X(i)) )^ (i + 1)
i=1
subject to
-1<= X(i) <= 1, i=1, 2, 3,..., 25000,
and X(1) through X(25000) are integer variables.
The problem above is based on the sum of different powers function test problem in Surjanovic and Bingham [80], which is
Minimize
d
sigma (ABS(X(i))) ^ (i + 1)
i=1
X(i) element [-1, 1], for all i=1,..., d.

This BASIC computer program was run with QB64v1000-win [93]. The complete output of a single run through JJJJ= -31986 is shown below:
0 0 0 0 0

Above there is no rounding by hand; it is just straight copying by hand from the monitor screen. On a personal computer with a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHz, 2.50 GHz, 960 MB of RAM and QB64v1000-win [93], the wall-clock time (not CPU time) for obtaining the output through JJJJ = -31986 was 9 hours.
