[Help-gsl] gsl_siman best_x NOT returned

[Stefano Bolli]

Hi.

I've a problem using gsl_siman(...), I'm using version 1.11 of the GSL
library.
Reading the documentation I expect that at the end the pointer to initial
solution contain the representation of the best solution found executing the
algorithm.
Executing my program I correctly obtain the evaluation of the best cost,
BUT
the solution returned is simply the last computed and not the best !!!

Infact in my example if I compute the cost of the representation returned I
obtain a cost of 5600
so that it means that it is the representation of the last computed position
and not the best one.

My results are:

#-iter  #-evals   temperature     position   energy    best energy
....
....
119       361   0.000700147    5600          3680          3680

Have you some idea about this problem?

Thanks.
Best Regards.
