  Hi:
  Using nls how can I increase the numbers of iterations to go beyond 50.
  I just want to be able to predict for the last two weeks of the year.
  This is what I have:

  weight_random <- runif(50,1,24)
  weight <- sort(weight_random);weight
weightData <- data.frame(weight,week=1:50)
                          weightData
plot(weight ~ week, weightData)
M_model <- nls(weight ~ alpha + beta*exp(gamma*week), weightData,
               start = c(alpha = 0.0, beta = 1, gamma = 0.2), trace = TRUE)

### I get the error below:
Error in nls(weight ~ alpha + beta * exp(gamma * week), weightData, start = 
c(alpha = 0,  :
   number of iterations exceeded maximum of 50


M_model
### predict for another 2 weeks
newD <- data.frame(week = 1:52);newD
newD$pred_wt <- predict(M_model, newD)
newD
plot(pred_wt ~ week, newD, pch = 4, col = "red", ylab = "Weight", xlab = "Week")
with(weightData, points(week, weight,col='blue'))
