SNESLineSearchSetLambda#

Sets the line search steplength

Synopsis#

#include "petscsnes.h" 
PetscErrorCode SNESLineSearchSetLambda(SNESLineSearch linesearch, PetscReal lambda)

Input Parameters#

linesearch - line search context
lambda - The steplength to use

Note#

This routine is typically used within implementations of SNESLineSearchApply() to set the final steplength. This routine (and SNESLineSearchGetLambda()) were added in order to facilitate Quasi-Newton methods that use the previous steplength as an inner scaling parameter.
