acceptable_tol:

"Acceptable" convergence tolerance (relative). $ \;$
Determines which (scaled) overall optimality error is considered to be "acceptable." There are two levels of termination criteria. If the usual "desired" tolerances (see tol, dual_inf_tol etc) are satisfied at an iteration, the algorithm immediately terminates with a success message. On the other hand, if the algorithm encounters "acceptable_iter" many iterations in a row that are considered "acceptable", it will terminate before the desired convergence tolerance is met. This is useful in cases where the algorithm might not be able to achieve the "desired" level of accuracy. The valid range for this real option is $ 0 < {\tt acceptable\_tol } < {\tt +inf}$ and its default value is $ 1 \cdot 10^{-06}$ .
