I have an error for a simple optimization problem. Is there anyone knowing about this error?
lambda1=-9 lambda2=-6 L<-function(a){ s2i2f<-(exp(-lambda1*(250^a)-lambda2*(275^a-250^a)) -exp(-lambda1*(250^a)-lambda2*(300^a-250^a))) logl<-log(s2i2f) return(-logl)} optim(1,L) Error in optim(1, L) : function cannot be evaluated at initial parameters Thank you in advance -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Error%3A--function-cannot-be-evaluated-at-initial-parameters-tp19565286p19565286.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
