[R] Error code from optim - "NEW_X" what does it mean?
Hello. Does anyone know what the error code "NEW_X" means in optim? Here is what the return looks like: $counts function gradient 302 302 $convergence [1] 1 $message [1] "NEW_X" I have searched and found a couple of mentions without responses: <https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2011-September/290722.html> September 2011 <https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2013-May/066731.html> Full disclosure, this is my (unanswered) question on R-devel I can only find one instance of the call in `optim.c` and I don't understand what it is doing. Thank you, Avraham Adler
