Max iterations
In the ATS and RATFOR samples and most of the others derived from them, the loop in the steffensen_aitken method appears to run from 1 to maxiter - 1
E.g., in the ATS sample:
...
var iter : int = 1 (* iteration counter *)
in
while (abs (p - p0) > tol andalso iter < maxiter)
begin
p0 := p;
p := aitken (f, p0);
iter := iter + 1
end;
...
I was just wondering if that should be iter <= maciter (or var iter : int = 0) in the while loop?
Or am I missing something?
