## Detailed Description

This performs line searches with cubic steps.

It is based on the Fortran MCSRCH and MCSTEP routines produced by: Argonne National Laboratory. MINPACK Project. June 1983 Jorge J. More', David J. Thuente.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

sc::MCSearch::MCSearch | ( | const Ref< KeyVal > & |  | ) |

The MCSearch KeyVal CTOR does not read any input.

See the LineOpt KeyVal CTOR for parameters that it takes.

## Member Function Documentation

void sc::MCSearch::init | ( | RefSCVector & | direction | ) | `[virtual]`

Initializes the line search object.

Argument is a search direction. Use of this method assumes the Optimize base class already has a function object (got it from a keyval or elsewhere).

Reimplemented from sc::LineOpt.

void sc::MCSearch::init | ( | RefSCVector & | direction,
|  | Ref< Function > | function
| ) |  | `[virtual]`

Initializes the line search object.

First argument is a search direction, second argument is a function object to optimize. Use this method when a function must be passed to the Optimize base class.

Reimplemented from sc::LineOpt.

int sc::MCSearch::update | ( |  | ) | `[virtual]`

Take a step.

Returns 1 if the optimization has converged, otherwise 0.

Implements sc::Optimize.
