Re: [R] Is there a way to optimize a function that has the dot-dot-dot (...) argument using optim()

[Rui Barradas]

Hello,

?optim has a dots argument, so just pass whatever you want after 'gr'. 
Something like the following.

optim(-3, foo, NULL, 1, 2)

Hope this helps,

Hi everyone,

If the function I am trying to optimize have the ... argument, how to pass
it to optim()?

For example, we want to minimize this very simple function:

foo <- function(a, ...) {
   var=list(...)
   (a-1)^2+do.call(sum,var)
}

Although the ... in this function doesn't make any difference.

Thanks,

Nan
