Hi,
I'm a longtime user of scipy and greatly appreciate your work.
I'd like to ask/suggest something about minimize_scalar. It seems to
me that the tol parameter is relative tolerance when the method is
'brent' and absolute tolerance when the method is 'bounded'. Isn't
this confusing?
Perhaps this parameter should be deprecated, until both methods can
support either relative or absolute tolerance? Meanwhile, parameters
with names such as 'abs_xtol' and 'rel_xtol' can be introduced, and
invalid combinations of parameters and method would be rejected with
a ValueError?
Cheers.
