Known Subclasses:

You need to define the function yourself within an inherited class.

Instance Methods

[hide private]

__init__(self, (n, m), F, C, save=False, numpoints=None)
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

source code

findzero(self, P1, P2, ind)
Uses secant method to find zero of test function.

source code

diff(self, x0, ind=None)
This is recreated from Function class above for TestFunc class.

source code

Inherited from Function: __call__, __getitem__, __setitem__, numhess

Inherited from object: __delattr__, __getattribute__, __hash__, __new__, __reduce__, __reduce_ex__, __repr__, __setattr__, __str__

Method Details

[hide private]

init(self, (n, m), F, C, save=False, numpoints=None)
(Constructor)

source code

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

Overrides: object.__init__: (inherited documentation)

findzero(self, P1, P2, ind)

source code

Uses secant method to find zero of test function.

Overrides: Function.findzero

diff(self, x0, ind=None)

source code

This is recreated from Function class above for TestFunc class. Why, you ask? Because for test functions, the jacobian of the parent function F needs to be computed before every test function call. Unforunately, this slows things down, but that is unavoidable.

Overrides: Function.diff
