newton.method is in package 'animation'.
Thanks Ravi.
BBSolve/BBOptim seems to work very well although I am not familiar with the
optimization methods being used there. Is there a way to specify a tolerance
in the function to get the required precision.
I did something like this to use newton method.
require(animation)
newton.method(f, init=2, tol=10*exp(-8))
But it gives bogus results.
If someone could point me a correct working version of newton method for
finding roots and its usage, that would be helpful.
cheers,
Sam
