GetEquationSolver(Func<Double, Double>, Double, Double) Finds a zero of a function when the solution is known to lie within a specified interval.
GetEquationSolver(Func<Double, Double>, Func<Double, Double>, Double) Finds a zero of a function starting from an initial guess.
GetEquationSolver(Func<Vector<Double>, Vector<Double>, Vector<Double>>, Func<Vector<Double>, Matrix<Double>, Matrix<Double>>, Vector<Double>) Finds a zero of a function starting from an initial guess.

GetEquationSolver(Func<Double, Double>, Double)

Returns an EquationSolver suitable for solving an equation using the specified information.
C# 
public static EquationSolver GetEquationSolver(
	this Func<double, double> function,
	double initialGuess
)

Parameters

function  Func<Double, Double>
A function of one variable that specifies the function on the left-hand side of the equation.
initialGuess  Double
An initial guess for ther zero.

Return Value

EquationSolver
An EquationSolver object that is set up to solve an equation for the specifed target function.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type Func<Double, Double>. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

Use this method when you have very little information about the location of the zero, but you need more control over the solution process. For example, you may want to specify a different RelativeTolerance.
