1Blurb:: 2Third-party optimization library integration demonstration. 3 4Description:: 5This is not a method that is intended for use. Rather it is part of a 6documented, functional example of how to integrate a third-party 7optimization library. It takes an initial point, generates a list of 8random parameter values, evaluates the function at each point in the 9list, and returns the point with the lowest function value. 10 11Documented instructions on how to integrate a third-party library, 12working source code, and build infrastructure can be found in 13$dakotaSource/packages/external/demo_tpl. Additionally, integration 14instructions can be found in the Developers Manual. 15
