NAME
       sc::Optimize - The Optimize class is an abstract	base class for classes
       that find the extreme points of Function's.

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<opt.h>

       Inherited by sc::EFCOpt,	sc::GDIISOpt, sc::LineOpt, sc::NewtonOpt,
       sc::QNewtonOpt, and sc::SteepestDescentOpt.

       void save_data_state (StateOut &)
	   Save	the base classes (with save_data_state)	and the	members	in the

       virtual void save_data_state (StateOut &)

	   start and stop using	locks on this object
       refcount_t nreference ()	const
	   Return the reference	count.
       refcount_t reference ()
	   Increment the reference count and return the	new count.
       refcount_t dereference ()
	   Decrement the reference count and return the	new count.
       int managed () const
       void unmanage ()
	   Turn	off the	reference counting mechanism for this object.
       int managed () const

Detailed Description
       The Optimize class is an	abstract base class for	classes	that find the
       extreme points of Function's.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
   sc::Optimize::Optimize (const Ref< KeyVal > &)
       The KeyVal constructor reads the	following information:

       checkpoint
	   If  true,  the  optimization	 will  be checkpointed.	The default is
	   false.

       checkpoint_file
	   The name of the checkpoint file. The	name defaults to opt_ckpt.dat.

       max_iterations
	   The maximum number of interations. The default is 10.

       max_stepsize
	   The maximum stepsize. The default is	0.6.

       function
	   A Function object. There is no default.

       convergence
	   This	can be either a	floating point number or a Convergence object.
	   If it is a  floating	 point	number	then  it  is  the  convergence
	   criterion. See the description Convergence class for	the default.

Member Function	Documentation
   virtual void	sc::Optimize::apply_transform (const Ref< NonlinearTransform >
       &) [virtual]
       Reimplemented in	sc::LineOpt.

   virtual void	sc::Optimize::init () [virtual]
       Initialize the optimizer.

       Reimplemented	 in	sc::EFCOpt,    sc::GDIISOpt,	sc::NewtonOpt,
       sc::QNewtonOpt, and sc::SteepestDescentOpt.

   virtual int sc::Optimize::optimize () [virtual]
       Do the optimization. Returns nonzero if the optimization	is complete.

   void	sc::Optimize::save_data_state (StateOut	&) [virtual]
       Save the	base classes (with save_data_state) and	 the  members  in  the
       same  order  that  the  StateIn	CTOR  initializes  them.  This must be
       implemented by the derived class	if the class has data.

       Reimplemented from sc::SavableState.

       Reimplemented	  in	  sc::LineOpt,	     sc::QNewtonOpt,	   and
       sc::SteepestDescentOpt.

   virtual int sc::Optimize::update () [pure virtual]

       Implemented  in	sc::EFCOpt, sc::GDIISOpt, sc::MCSearch,	sc::NewtonOpt,
       sc::Backtrack, sc::QNewtonOpt, and sc::SteepestDescentOpt.
