FindMinimum(Func<Double, Double>, Double)	Computes a minimum of the specified function.
FindMinimum(Func<Double, Double>, Double, Double)	Computes a minimum of the specified function.

Computes a minimum of the specified function.

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

Visual Basic

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

C++/CLI

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

member FindMinimum : 
        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 minimum.

Double
A local minimum of objectiveFunction.

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

Computes a minimum of the specified function.
