Definition

Namespace: Extreme.Mathematics
Assembly: Extreme.Numerics (in Extreme.Numerics.dll) Version: 8.1.23
C#
public static Func<Vector<double>, Matrix<double>, Matrix<double>> GetNumericalJacobian(
	this Func<Vector<double>, double>[] functions
)

Parameters

functions  Func<Vector<Double>, Double>[]
An array of delegates that represent a multivariate function.

Return Value

Func<Vector<Double>, Matrix<Double>, Matrix<Double>>
A delegate that represents a multivariate function returning a matrix in its second argument.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type Func<Vector<Double>, Double>[]. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

Simple forward differences are used to compute the numerical derivatives.
