- Subject: names in multimin section
Hi all,
I think that in a couple of cases the names in the multimin section
are a little bit inconsistent (or, at least, hard to remember...).
First: if the function with derivatives is of type
gsl_multimin_function_fdf
then one expects the type of the function without derivatives to be
gsl_multimin_function_f
rather than gsl_multimin_function.
Second: the present value of the objective function is stored in the
variable "f" of the structure "gsl_multimin_fdfminimizer" but in the
variable "fval" of the structure "gsl_multimin_fminimizer".
Bye,
Giulio.
