Dear kind R-experts.

Does anybody have an experience to use optim function?
If yes, what is the main difference between two method "BFGS" vs
"L-BFGS-B"?
I used "BFGS" method and got what I wanted. But when I used "L-BFGS-B"
the error message said that "L-BFGS-B needs finite values of fn". So
that means
"BFGS" method can handle even if fn function is infinite value?

What I really want to know is that can I get the same result by using
L-BFGS-B method?
