math_BracketedRoot Class Reference

This class implements the Brent method to find the root of a function
located within two bounds. No knowledge of the derivative is required.

DEFINE_STANDARD_ALLOC math_BracketedRoot (math_Function &F, const Standard_Real Bound1, const Standard_Real Bound2, const Standard_Real Tolerance, const Standard_Integer NbIterations=100, const Standard_Real ZEPS=1.0e-12)
 The Brent method is used to find the root of the function F between
the bounds Bound1 and Bound2 on the function F.
If F(Bound1)*F(Bound2) >0 the Brent method fails.
The tolerance required for the root is given by Tolerance.
The solution is found when :
abs(Xi - Xi-1) <= Tolerance;
The maximum number of iterations allowed is given by NbIterations.

Standard_Boolean IsDone () const
 Returns true if the computations are successful, otherwise returns false.

Standard_Real Root () const
 returns the value of the root.
Exception NotDone is raised if the minimum was not found.

Standard_Real Value () const
 returns the value of the function at the root.
Exception NotDone is raised if the minimum was not found.

Standard_Integer NbIterations () const
 returns the number of iterations really done during the
computation of the Root.
Exception NotDone is raised if the minimum was not found.

void Dump (Standard_OStream &o) const
 Prints on the stream o information on the current state
of the object.
