Hello, in a previous version of Mathematica, a simplex downhill method could be opted for before switching on Levenberg+... . I regret that the old simplex method is no longer available because I have trouble finding global minima in many dimensions. (1) Is it pointless to use the Nelder Mead method? (2) If not, where do I find this code that was previously available? (3) Or what is your alternate suggestion? Thank you in advance for your comments, yours foerster at bortibm4.in2p3.fr D.
