Which of the following is the correct syntax to call dual_annealing on a function f with bounds [(0, 1), (0, 2)]?
Adual_annealing(f, bounds={(0, 1), (0, 2)})
Bdual_annealing(f, bounds=(0, 1), (0, 2))
Cdual_annealing(f, bounds=[(0, 1), (0, 2)])
Ddual_annealing(f, bounds=[0, 1, 0, 2])
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Recall the bounds parameter format

    dual_annealing expects bounds as a list of tuples, each tuple defining (min, max) for a variable.
  2. Step 2: Check each option's bounds format

    dual_annealing(f, bounds=[(0, 1), (0, 2)]) correctly uses a list of tuples. dual_annealing(f, bounds=(0, 1), (0, 2)) incorrectly separates tuples without a list. dual_annealing(f, bounds={(0, 1), (0, 2)}) uses a set, which is unordered. dual_annealing(f, bounds=[0, 1, 0, 2]) uses a flat list, which is invalid.
  3. Final Answer:

    dual_annealing(f, bounds=[(0, 1), (0, 2)]) -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Bounds must be list of tuples = dual_annealing(f, bounds=[(0, 1), (0, 2)]) [OK]
Quick Trick: Bounds must be list of (min, max) tuples [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Using sets instead of lists for bounds
  • Passing bounds as separate arguments
  • Using flat lists instead of tuples
