[R] Numerical solution

2014-01-08 Thread Aurélien Philippot
Dear R experts, I want to use numerical methods to solve a complex problem. Here is a very simple example that gives an idea of what I would like to do. This example could be solved by hand, but I am interested in finding a numerical solution in R. Let's say that I have the following equation:
