Adding the sum of absolute values must be equal to 1 as a Constr with a linear solver
$begingroup$
I have a big problem with Constr.
i was:
$$min sum sigma_{x_i}$$
$$s.t sum x_i = 1, where space space0<= x_i<=1$$
and now I need that problem to be:
$$min sum sigma_{x_i}$$
$$s.t sum |x_i| = 1, where -1<= x_i<=1$$
how to transform that absolute value constraint in a linear constraint?
