Luc Maisonobe commented on MATH-466:
------------------------------------
Yes, the javadoc should be changed and the number of starts should be checked
with an error triggered if it is not at least 1.
> BaseMultiStartMultivariateRealOptimizer.optimize() can generate NPE if starts
> < 1

> Key: MATH-466
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-466
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0
> Reporter: Sebb
>
> The Javadoc for BaseMultiStartMultivariateRealOptimizer says that starts can
> be <= 1; however if it is set to 0, then the optimize() method will try to
> throw a null exception.
> Perhaps starts should be constrained to be at least 1?
