| Additional information | Most algorithms won't converge from initial guesses 2 and 3. | ||
| There are several inconsistencies between the two formulations | |||
| of the model equations appearing in the original source. We | |||
| attempted to correct the equations to obtain solution close | |||
| to the one shown in the original source. | |||
