Often in game theory (and presumably other applied math settings) we are interested in the behavior of equations with no explicit solution. In this talk, Andrew Little demonstrates how I use the optim() and other functions in R for such situations in my research to the NYC R Statistical Programming Meetup on April 8, 2010.
