Dear fellows: This is the problem: I have 5 variables A, B, C, D and E with a range from 1 to 100 with 0.1 steps. Depending on the different values these have, the results of the formula change:
alitemp <- ((Abase/llmcc$Clase)*PClase)+(((1/llmcc $Categoria)*Abase)*PCategoria)+((Abase*llmcc$Phi)*PPhi)+((Abase*llmcc $Rf)*PRf) So, alitemp (a 283 element series) changes if any of the P** values changes. I need to find a combinations of those 5 variables that approximates the desired results. Although I can make use of a 'for' loop, Im not sure of how to combine the whole 5 variables changing at once. I understand there are many possible combinations (factorial of 5000!, 422 with some 500 digits) but I surmise there must be a better way to do it. So far, I have been changing them manually, but this task make the whole thing terribly slow and inneficient. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks. Cuanto mas grande son, mas daño hacen.
