Thank you - optim has solved my problem.
Best regards,

Hi,
Suppose you have p equations in p unknowns:
F1(x1,x2,...,xp) =0
.
.
.
Fp(x1,x2,...,xp) = 0
You can solve the equivalent minimization problem:
G(x1,x2,...,xp) = F1^2 + ... + Fp^2 = 0
So, you can use optim with G as your objective function.
Hope this is helpful,
Ravi.

Subject: [R] help with numerical solution for two simultaneous
nonlinearequations in 2 variables
Hi,
I am relatively new to R and am trying to solve two simultaneous
nonlinear equations in two variables numerically, and was wondering if
anyone knew if any of the packages could do that. An alternative is
writing my own code using Newton-Raphson; I did that but was not able to
get good convergence. Any ideas please?
Thanks
Yogesh
