FindMaximum(Func<Double, Double>, Double)	Computes a maximum of the specified function.
FindMaximum(Func<Double, Double>, Double, Double)	Computes a maximum of the specified function.

Computes a maximum of the specified function.

public double FindMaximum(
	Func<double, double> objectiveFunction,
	double initialGuess
)

Visual Basic

Public Function FindMaximum ( 
	objectiveFunction As Func(Of Double, Double),
	initialGuess As Double
) As Double

C++/CLI

public:
double FindMaximum(
	Func<double, double>^ objectiveFunction, 
	double initialGuess
)

member FindMaximum : 
        objectiveFunction : Func<float, float> * 
        initialGuess : float -> float

objectiveFunction Func<Double, Double>: A delegate that represents a function of one variable that specifies the objective function.
initialGuess Double: An initial guess for the maximum.

Double
A local maximum of objectiveFunction.

The algorithm failed to converge and ThrowExceptionOnFailure is set to true.

Computes a maximum of the specified function.
