52 | <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">bracket_and_solve_root</span></code> | |
53 | is a convenience function that calls <a class="link" href="TOMS748.html" title="Algorithm TOMS 748: Alefeld, Potra and Shi: Enclosing zeros of continuous functions">TOMS | |
54 | 748 algorithm</a> internally to find the root of <span class="emphasis"><em>f(x)</em></span>. | |
55 | It is generally much easier to use this function rather than <a class="link" href="TOMS748.html" title="Algorithm TOMS 748: Alefeld, Potra and Shi: Enclosing zeros of continuous functions">TOMS | |
56 | 748 algorithm</a>, since it does the hard work of bracketing the root | |
57 | for you. It's bracketing routines are quite robust and will usually be | |
58 | more foolproof than home-grown routines, unless the function can be analysed | |
59 | to yield tight brackets. | |
60 | </p> | |
61 | <p> | |
62 | Note that this routine can only be used when: | |
63 | </p> | |
64 | <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "> | |
65 | <li class="listitem"> | |
66 | <span class="emphasis"><em>f(x)</em></span> is monotonic in the half of the real axis | |
67 | containing <span class="emphasis"><em>guess</em></span>. | |
68 | </li> | |
69 | <li class="listitem"> | |
70 | The value of the inital guess must have the same sign as the root: | |
71 | the function will <span class="emphasis"><em>never cross the origin</em></span> when | |
72 | searching for the root. | |
73 | </li> | |
74 | <li class="listitem"> | |
75 | The location of the root should be known at least approximately, if | |
76 | the location of the root differs by many orders of magnitude from | |
77 | <span class="emphasis"><em>guess</em></span> then many iterations will be needed to bracket | |
78 | the root in spite of the special heuristics used to guard against this | |
79 | very situation. A typical example would be setting the initial guess | |
80 | to 0.1, when the root is at 1e-300. | |

84 | The <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">bracket_and_solve_root</span></code> | |

89 | <dl class="variablelist"> | |

92 | A unary functor that is the function whose root is to be solved. | |
93 | <span class="emphasis"><em>f(x)</em></span> must be uniformly increasing or decreasing | |
94 | on <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>. | |

99 | </p></dd> | |
100 | <dt><span class="term">factor</span></dt> | |
101 | <dd><p> | |
102 | A scaling factor that is used to bracket the root: the value <span class="emphasis"><em>guess</em></span> | |
103 | is multiplied (or divided as appropriate) by <span class="emphasis"><em>factor</em></span> | |
104 | until two values are found that bracket the root. A value such as | |
105 | 2 is a typical choice for <span class="emphasis"><em>factor</em></span>. In addition | |
106 | <span class="emphasis"><em>factor</em></span> will be multiplied by 2 every 32 iterations: | |
107 | this is to guard against a really very bad initial guess, typically | |
108 | these occur when it's known the result is very large or small, but | |
109 | not the exact order of magnitude. | |

115 | <span class="emphasis"><em>f(x)</em></span> is falling on <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>. This | |
116 | value is used along with the result of <span class="emphasis"><em>f(guess)</em></span> | |
117 | to determine if <span class="emphasis"><em>guess</em></span> is above or below the | |
118 | root. | |

121 | <dd><p> | |
122 | A binary functor that determines the termination condition for the | |
123 | search for the root. <span class="emphasis"><em>tol</em></span> is passed the current | |
124 | brackets at each step, when it returns true then the current brackets | |
125 | are returned as the pair result. See also <a class="link" href="root_termination.html" title="Termination Condition Functors">predefined | |
126 | termination functors</a>. | |
127 | </p></dd> | |
128 | <dt><span class="term">max_iter</span></dt> | |
129 | <dd><p> | |
130 | The maximum number of function invocations to perform in the search | |

137 | The final <a class="link" href="../../../policy.html" title="Chapter 15. Policies: Controlling Precision, Error Handling etc">Policy</a> argument is optional and | |
138 | can be used to control the behaviour of the function: how it handles errors, | |
139 | what level of precision to use etc. Refer to the <a class="link" href="../../../policy.html" title="Chapter 15. Policies: Controlling Precision, Error Handling etc">policy | |
140 | documentation for more details</a>. | |

157 | </pre> | |
158 | <p> | |
159 | where <span class="emphasis"><em>m</em></span> is the initial value of <span class="emphasis"><em>max_iter</em></span> | |
160 | passed to the function. | |
161 | </p> | |
162 | <p> | |
163 | In other words, it's up to the caller to verify whether termination occurred | |
164 | as a result of exceeding <span class="emphasis"><em>max_iter</em></span> function invocations | |
165 | (easily done by checking the value of <span class="emphasis"><em>max_iter</em></span> when | |
166 | the function returns), rather than because the termination condition <span class="emphasis"><em>tol</em></span> | |
167 | was satisfied. | |
