cape.attdb.froot: Nonlinear equation solver¶
This module provides a function froot1() to solve nonlinear
equations
\[f(x) = 0\]
where both x and the output of f can be either scalars or vectors. The function operates without attempting to use exact derivative or gradient information.
- cape.attdb.froot.froot1(f, x0, *a, **kw)¶
Find a root of a real-valued scalar nonlinear function
- Call:
>>> x = froot1(f, x0, **kw) >>> x = froot1(f, x0, x1, **kw)
- Inputs:
- f:
func Function which can evaluate
f(x0)- x0:
float Initial guess, scalar or vector
- x1:
class(x0) (Optional) secondary guess to scale initial step or bracket
- xtol, TolX: {
1e-14} |float Tolerance in x
- ytol, TolFun: {
1e-14} |float Tolerance for absolute value of
f(x)- imax, MaxIter: {
80} |int Maximum iterations
- fmax, MaxFunEvals: {
161} |int Maximum function evaluations
- y0: {
None} |float Optional evaluation of
f(x0)to reduce func evals by one- v, Display
True| {False} Display iterative histories to STDOUT
- f:
- Outputs:
- x:
float Solution such that
f(x)is approximately zero
- x:
