Method "getResult()" in "MultiStartUnivariateRealOptimizer"
-----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MATH-393
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-393
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Gilles
            Assignee: Gilles
            Priority: Trivial


In "MultiStartUnivariateRealOptimizer" (package "optimization"), the method 
"getResult" returns the result of the last run of the "underlying" optimizer; 
this last result might not be the best one, in which case it will not 
correspond to the value returned by the "optimize" method. This is confusing 
and does not seem very useful. I think that "getResult" should be defined as
{code} 
public double getResult() {
    return optima[0];
}
{code}
and similarly
{code}
public double getFunctionValue() {
    return optimaValues[0];
}
{code}
