Warns
NagAlgorithmicWarning
(errno )

There have been at least calls to . Consider restarting the calculation from the point held in .

(errno )

No further improvement in the solution is possible. is too small: .

(errno )

The iteration is not making good progress. This failure exit may indicate that the system does not have a zero, or that the solution is very close to the origin (see Accuracy). Otherwise, rerunning sys_func_easy from a different starting point may avoid the region of difficulty.

NagCallbackTerminateWarning
(errno )

Termination requested in .

Notes

The system of equations is defined as:

sys_func_easy is based on the MINPACK routine HYBRD1 (see Moré et al. (1980)). It chooses the correction at each step as a convex combination of the Newton and scaled gradient directions. The Jacobian is updated by the rank-1 method of Broyden. At the starting point, the Jacobian is approximated by forward differences, but these are not used again until the rank-1 method fails to produce satisfactory progress. For more details see Powell (1970).
