NLopt 2.1.1

NLopt is a free/open-source library for nonlinear optimization, providing a common interface for a number of different free optimization routines available online as well as original implementations of various other algorithms. Its features include:<br /><br /> * Callable from C, C++, Fortran, GNU Octave, Matlab, Python, and GNU Guile.<br /> * A common interface for many different algorithms*try a different algorithm just by changing one parameter.<br /> * Support for large-scale optimization (some algorithms scalable to millions of parameters and thousands of constraints).<br /> * Both global and local optimization algorithms.<br /> * Algorithms using function values only (derivative-free) and also algorithms exploiting user-supplied gradients.<br /> * Algorithms for unconstrained optimization, bound-constrained optimization, and general nonlinear inequality/equality constraints.<br /> * Free/open-source software under the GNU LGPL (and looser licenses for some portions of NLopt). <br /><br />See the NLopt Introduction for a further overview of the types of problems it addresses.
