27  * @brief full strong LP branching rule
28  * @author Tobias Achterberg
29  *
30  * The full strong branching rule applies strong branching to every fractional variable of the LP solution
31  * at the current node of the branch-and-bound search. The rule selects the candidate
32  * which will cause the highest gain of the dual bound in the created sub-tree among all branching variables.
33  *
34  * For calculating the gain, a look-ahead is performed by solving the child node LPs which will result
35  * from branching on a variable.
36  *
37  * For a more mathematical description and a comparison between the strong branching rule and other branching rules
38  * in SCIP, we refer to
