Single Solution
You obtain the single best solution found during the run by calling run with
the syntax
[x fval eflag output] = run(...);
x is the location of the local minimum with smallest objective function
value.
fval is the objective function value evaluated at x.
eflag is an exit flag for the global solver. Values:
Global Solver Exit Flags
2 At least one local minimum found. Some runs of the local solver
converged (had positive exit flag).
1 At least one local minimum found. All runs of the local solver
converged (had positive exit flag).
0 No local minimum found. Local solver called at least once, and
at least one local solver exceeded the MaxIter or MaxFunEvals
tolerances.
-1 Solver stopped by output function or plot function.
