Phil Steitz commented on MATH-631:
----------------------------------
I disagree with your statement about setting accuracy. All of this is
configurable and if not set, you get the (documented) defaults. This is all
documented. If the documentation is not clear, then we can improve it. A user
who applies Regula Falsi to the problem instance being examined here will end
up maxing iterations. I see no problem with that and in fact I see it as
*correct* behavior (given the documented execution context of the algorithm).
> "RegulaFalsiSolver" failure
> ---------------------------
>
> Key: MATH-631
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-631
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Gilles
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> The following unit test:
> {code}
> @Test
> public void testBug() {
> final UnivariateRealFunction f = new UnivariateRealFunction() {
> @Override
> public double value(double x) {
> return Math.exp(x) - Math.pow(Math.PI, 3.0);
> }
> };
> UnivariateRealSolver solver = new RegulaFalsiSolver();
> double root = solver.solve(100, f, 1, 10);
> }
> {code}
> fails with
> {noformat}
> illegal state: maximal count (100) exceeded: evaluations
> {noformat}
> Using "PegasusSolver", the answer is found after 17 evaluations.
