Simple package to check derivatives

Usage

  check(f, Jf, x[, constant_components]; f_kwargs...)

Returns true if Jf approximates the derivative/gradient/Jacobian of f at point x (along a random direction). f_kwargs are keywords arguments to be passed to f and Jf. constant_components is an optional Vector{Int} corresponding to components of the direction which should be set to zero, effectively ignoring the dependency of f on these components.

Examples

julia> f = x -> cos(x); Jf = x -> -sin(x); check(f, Jf, rand())
true
