A modern Fortran simulated annealing optimization method. A work in progress.
A Fortran Package Manager manifest file is included, so that the library and test cases can be compiled with FPM. For example:
fpm build --profile release
fpm test --profile release
To use simulated-annealing within your fpm project, add the following to your fpm.toml file:
[dependencies]
simulated-annealing = { git="https://github.com/jacobwilliams/simulated-annealing.git" }To generate the documentation using ford, run: ford ford.md
The latest API documentation can be found here. This was generated from the source code using FORD.
