[R] re 11. uniroot and function opposite signs warning

[tfjbl at mail.uas.alaska.edu]

Nurza,
Try running a while loop steping out until you have a start and finish 
thats the function is opposite in sign. You need a "start" and "finish"
where F is + and - on either side of the loop. Graphing F might help.


step<-10
checkme<-F(start)*F(finish+step)

while(checkme>0){
initialstep<-initialstep*2
checkme<-F(start)*F(finish+step)
}
answer<-uniroot(F,low=start,up=finish+step,maxiter=100)$root



Enjoy
