Gilles commented on MATH-631:
-----------------------------
Committed (with minor additional Javadoc fixes) in revision 1164474.
Leaving open until confirmation that {{ConvergenceException}} is the right one
to use. I thought that we could make a difference between _theoretical_ and
_implementation_ convergence failures. But it might not be worth introducing
the distinction just for this one case, especially since it is quite clear
clear now that the class should not be used.
> "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

> Attachments: ticket631.patch
>
>
> 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.
