      • getEvaluations

        public int getEvaluations()
        Get the number of evaluations of the objective function. The number of evaluations corresponds to the last call to the optimize method. It is 0 if the method has not been called yet.

        Returns:
        the number of evaluations of the objective function.

      • getAbsoluteAccuracy

        public double getAbsoluteAccuracy()
        Get the absolute accuracy of the solver. Solutions returned by the solver should be accurate to this tolerance, i.e., if ε is the absolute accuracy of the solver and v is a value returned by one of the solve methods, then a root of the function should exist somewhere in the interval (v - ε, v + ε).
        Specified by:

        Returns:
