Thanks for the email. In gnewton the steps are subject to an acceptance condition and the derivatives are only calculated after that has been tested. Evaluating the function and derivatives simultaneously would cause extra derivative evaluations on the failed steps. _______________________________________________ Bug-gsl mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gsl
