Use Igor Pro's Optimize operation to find minima and maxima of functions.
- Optimize functions of any number of independent variables.
- Uses golden-section search combined with parabolic interpolation for univariate functions.
- Quasi-Newton methods for multivariate functions.
- Simulated Annealing available for both univariate and multivariate functions.
- Use the Optimize operation to build your own curve fitter with your own merit function!
