Remarks

The EquationSystemSolver class is the abstract base class of all classes that implement algorithms that solve systems of non-linear equations. The class inherits from ManagedIterativeAlgorithm. All the properties and methods exposed by this interface are available to all derived classes.

This class cannot be instantiated directly. Instead, use one of the following derived classes:

NewtonRaphsonSystemSolver – Represents a EquationSystemSolver that uses the Newton-Raphson algorithm in multiple dimensions.
DoglegSystemSolver – Represents a EquationSystemSolver that uses Powell's dogleg algorithm.
