If it helps, here is an example of the input to the flow program: Right Box 5 3 Call \lstinline!EigError!($j\omega$) in an implied for loop to get Characteristic Determinant($\omega$) Box 5 3 Plot Characteristic Determinant vs. $\omega$ to find good initial guesses for numerical search Box 5 3 Call \lstinline!FindEig!(guess) for each guess taken from the plot of Characteristic Determinant vs. $\omega$ Skip 0 0 1 1 SetTrack none Down 0.7 TxtPos [l] [l] Text 5 5 \lstinline!FindEig! calls either \lstinline!newton! to find the root of the characteristic determinant or \lstinline!fmin! to find the local minimum of the absolute value of the characteristic determinant. In both cases, \lstinline!EigError! is the cost function.
