Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knew a way to interrupt a calculation that would
produce an answer.

More specifically, I am currently running a FindMinimum calculation with
MaxIterations -> 3000 and WorkingPrecision -> 32. With the complexity of my
problem this takes quite a long time. When my MaxIterations were lower it
would fail out with a 'failed to converge after 30 iterations' error and
produce the last iteration. Is there a way to produce the last fully solved
iteration the FindMinimum has found? I'm pretty sure my solution will not
fully converge but I would like to see where it is at so I can do some more
calculations.

Thanks in advanced.

Jason
