The EXTERNAL keyword is used to make procedural calls to external methods within the METHODS section of a MODEL. External methods are defined using other programming languages such as C and Python, allowing greater flexibility for manipulating your model or generating output/graphics than the ASCEND language can offer.

See External libraries#External methods for more information.

See also Goal seeking solver for an example of an external method provided with ASCEND.
