Increments
Key Increments in MinMax Fn refers to an optional 1D-array of fixed numbers c₁ , c₂ , ... , cᵤ
They are added to the original input variables x₁ , x₂ , ... , xᵤ after the latter have been divided with the reference values specified in Ref Values
Thus they produce the numbers x₁/x⁰₁ + c₁ , x₂/x⁰₂ + c₂ , ... , xᵤ/x⁰ᵤ + cᵤ
When present, the minimum/maximum m is searched among x₁/x⁰₁ + c₁ , x₂/x⁰₂ + c₂ , ... , xᵤ/x⁰ᵤ + cᵤ rather than among x₁ , x₂ , ... , xᵤ
Assuming that the function's output is not further modified due to the presence of the optional entry Post Applied Weights, the formula of the function ƒ becomes:
ƒ( x₁ , x₂ , ... , xᵤ ) = min{ x₁/x⁰₁ + c₁ , x₂/x⁰₂ + c₂ , ... , xᵤ/x⁰ᵤ + cᵤ }
If this entry is missing, ƒ's formula is simply:
x₁/x⁰₁ , x₂/x⁰₂ , ... , xᵤ/x⁰ᵤ
The presence of this entry has a sideeffect on the Domain_Dim since it imposes the requirement that the function ƒ must receive at least u input variables, where u is the number of this entry's elements.
The number of elements in this entry must match the number of elements in Ref Values, if the latter is provided.
