gradient is a small package for efficient descent computation. Using gradient it is possible to perform steepest descent or gradient descent to fit linear models. Moreover the package contains a series of function for inspecting the convergence of the algorithm. Find out more in the vignette.
# The easiest way to get gradient is to install it from GitHub:
# install.packages("devtools")
