Five algorithmic paths each include +a core subroutine and an easy-to-use driver. The algorithms proceed +either from an analytic specification of the Jacobian matrix or +directly from the problem functions. The paths include facilities for +systems of equations with a banded Jacobian matrix, for least squares +problems with a large amount of data, and for checking the consistency +of the Jacobian matrix with the functions. |
