Julia Key Error when accessing a value in dictionary

Question

When trying to run this code Julia keeps giving me the error message "KeyError: key 18=>63 not found" anytime I try to access demand[i]. It seems that this error happens every time the element in dem is larger than 50.

using JuMP, Clp

hours = 1:24

dem = [43 40 36 36 35 38 41 46 49 48 47 47 48 46 45 47 50 63 75 75 72 66 57 50]
demand = Dict(zip(hours, dem))

m = Model(solver=ClpSolver())

@variable(m, x[demand] >= 0) 
@variable(m, y[demand] >= 0)

for i in demand
    if demand[i] > 50
        @constraint(m, y[i] == demand[i])
    else
        @constraint(m, x[i] == demand[i])
    end
end

Not sure how to solve this issue.

Answer 1

This worked for me, using Julia 1.0

using JuMP, Clp

hours = 1:24

dem = [43 40 36 36 35 38 41 46 49 48 47 47 48 46 45 47 50 63 75 75 72 66 57 50]
demand = Dict(zip(hours, dem))

m = Model()
setsolver(m, ClpSolver())

@variable(m, x[keys(demand)] >= 0)
@variable(m, y[keys(demand)] >= 0)

for (h, d) in demand
    if d > 50
        @constraint(m, y[h] == d)
    else
        @constraint(m, x[h] == d)
    end
end

status = solve(m)

println("Objective value: ", getobjectivevalue(m))
println("x = ", getvalue(x))
println("y = ", getvalue(y))

Answer 2

You are using a Python-style for x in dict. In Julia, this iterates over the key-value pairs of the dictionary, not the keys. Try

for i in keys(demand)
    if demand[i] > 50
        @constraint(m, y[i] == demand[i])
    else
        @constraint(m, x[i] == demand[i])
    end
end

or

for (h, d) in demand
    if d > 50
        @constraint(m, y[h] == d)
    else
        @constraint(m, x[h] == d)
    end
end
