Dear all, 

I am trying to minimize a function with 3 parameters using nlm. I have worked out the 
2nd derivatives (incl the cross-product terms) and would like to supply them to nlm 
for evaluation. What I am not sure about is how to set up the Hessian matrix for nlm. 
That is, 

attr(lhat, "hessian") <- c(???) 

Do I have to enter all 9 of the entries or just the lower triangle of the matrix? I 
have not been able to find the documentation in relationship to this. Many thanks for 
any tips in advance. 

Edmond
