Detailed Description

This performs line searches with cubic steps.

It is based on the Fortran MCSRCH and MCSTEP routines produced by: Argonne National Laboratory. MINPACK Project. June 1983 Jorge J. More', David J. Thuente.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

sc::MCSearch::MCSearch (const Ref< KeyVal > &)

The MCSearch KeyVal CTOR does not read any input. See the LineOpt KeyVal CTOR for parameters that it takes.

Member Function Documentation

void sc::MCSearch::init (RefSCVector & direction, Ref< Function > function) [virtual]

Initializes the line search object. First argument is a search direction, second argument is a function object to optimize. Use this method when a function must be passed to the Optimize base class.

Reimplemented from sc::LineOpt.

void sc::MCSearch::init (RefSCVector & direction) [virtual]

Initializes the line search object. Argument is a search direction. Use of this method assumes the Optimize base class already has a function object (got it from a keyval or elsewhere).
