[Rcpp-devel] Numerical Optimization in C++

[Yan Zhou]

I good numerical optimization library I used before is NLOpt, for non-linear optimization. http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/NLopt

You can use it just like and C/C++ library in your own code or you can use its own R interface as an R package.

Best,

Yan
