and terminating criteria will be discussed. Finally, the linear search procedure<br />

programmed by Fletcher and used in the following Fletcher-Reeves optimizer<br />

will be described and illustrated by an example.<br />

5.3.1. Slope in tire Linear Search Direction. The components <strong>of</strong> the gradient<br />

vector at any point p, namely g(p), indicate the rate <strong>of</strong> change <strong>of</strong> function<br />

value in each coordinate direction. During linear searches, Figure 5.20 indicates<br />

the need to have the function's rate <strong>of</strong> change in some arbitrary direction<br />

s. This may be obtained by recalling the Taylor series expansion about point<br />

p, as given in (5.30). In this case, the
