R (which is included in Sage) also has a C-based optimizer (optim) for double-precision parameters where a Nelder-Mead algorithm is the default, but if your approach is better or more general, then I am sure it would be welcome for all sorts of open source projects. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
