Number of function evaluations allowed for optimizers
This keyword is related to the topics:
Alias: none
Argument(s): INTEGER
Default: 1000
The maximum number of function evaluations is used as a stopping criterion for optimizers. If it has not reached any other stopping criteria first, the optimizer will stop after it has performed max_function_evalutions evaluations. See also max_iterations.
Some optimizers (e.g. ncsu_direct) may run past this limit in the course of an iteration step that began before max_function_evaluations was exceeded.
Default Behavior
Default value is 1000.
