small changes to explanation files in documentation

optimagic-dev / optimagic

optimagic is a Python package for numerical optimization. It is a unified interface to optimizers from SciPy, NlOpt and other packages. optimagic's minimize function works just like SciPy's, so you don't have to adjust your code. You simply get more optimizers for free. On top you get diagnostic tools, parallel numerical derivatives and more.

small changes to explanation files in documentation #531

In addition to the minor changes which I already implemented:

I really like the visualizations in explanation_of_numerical_optimizers.md. However, it would be great if there was a way to manually click through the images such that the user can speed it up or revert to a previous figure. With the current implementation via gifs it takes quite a while to see the full cycle.

Thanks @ChristianZimpelmann. I will merge my current PR first, which should fix the tests. Then I'll have a look.

I like your suggestion for more interactive plots but I am not sure we will have time to implement it anytime soon.
