Re: [Help-gsl] Re: (A newbie asks) How to program multidimensional root solver?

[John Pye]

FWIW have you already been able to solve this equation system? Have you 
tried with a tool like Excel Solver or ASCEND or Maxima or GAMS first? 
Once you have shown that the equations solve and behave nicely, you can 
try coding them up in low-level C code, but it generally easier to use a 
higher-level tool first up. Perhaps you already did this -- just checking.
