Here I have a somewhat "high-level" question. I don't know if this has been explained before, but does anybody have the details on how the solver exactly works? I mean what it exactly does with the initial guesses you give it, and how it extrapolates? Maybe someone at HP could shed some light onto this? (It should not be that classified, I guess :-) -- Sincerely, berg%cip-s01.informatik.rwth-aachen.de@unido.bitnet Stephen R. van den Berg.
