## Interface BaseMultivariateSimpleBoundsOptimizer<FUNC extends MultivariateFunction>

- Type Parameters:
    `FUNC` - Type of the objective function to be optimized.
  All Superinterfaces:
    BaseMultivariateOptimizer<FUNC>, BaseOptimizer<PointValuePair>
  All Known Implementing Classes:
    BaseAbstractMultivariateSimpleBoundsOptimizer, BOBYQAOptimizer, CMAESOptimizer

  Deprecated.
  As of 3.1 (to be removed in 4.0).

      @Deprecated
      public interface BaseMultivariateSimpleBoundsOptimizer<FUNC extends MultivariateFunction>
      extends BaseMultivariateOptimizer<FUNC>

  This interface is mainly intended to enforce the internal coherence of Commons-FastMath. Users of the API are advised to base their code on the following interfaces:
  - `MultivariateOptimizer`
  - `MultivariateDifferentiableOptimizer`
  Since:
    3.0

    - #### optimize

          PointValuePair optimize(int maxEval,
                                FUNC f,
                                GoalType goalType,
                                double[] startPoint,
                                double[] lowerBound,
                                double[] upperBound)

      Deprecated.
      Optimize an objective function.
      Parameters:
        `f` - Objective function.
        `goalType` - Type of optimization goal: either `GoalType.MAXIMIZE` or `GoalType.MINIMIZE`.
        `startPoint` - Start point for optimization.
        `maxEval` - Maximum number of function evaluations.
        `lowerBound` - Lower bound for each of the parameters.
        `upperBound` - Upper bound for each of the parameters.
      Returns:
        the point/value pair giving the optimal value for objective function.
      Throws:
        `DimensionMismatchException` - if the array sizes are wrong.
        `TooManyEvaluationsException` - if the maximal number of evaluations is exceeded.
        `NullArgumentException` - if `f`, `goalType` or `startPoint` is `null`.
        `NumberIsTooSmallException` - if any of the initial values is less than its lower bound.
        `NumberIsTooLargeException` - if any of the initial values is greater than its upper bound.
