Hi Masha,

These are replacement rules indeed. Say you have the list {{beta -> 
1.5}, {a -> 0.2}, {b -> 0.27}} returned by the function FindMaximum. 
Then, you can assign the values of beta, a, and b by using the 
transformation operator /. (slash dot) as follows
{beta, a, b} /. Flatten[{{beta -> 1.5}, {a -> 0.2}, {b -> 0.27}}]
