	   This is the abstract base class for all optimization problems that can be run by
	   CMinimizer. In order to implement a real optimizable problem, the abstract functions 
		- virtual double  do_f(const CDoubleVector& x) = 0; 
		- virtual void    do_df(const CDoubleVector& x, CDoubleVector&  g) = 0; 
		- virtual double  do_fdf(const CDoubleVector& x, CDoubleVector&  g) = 0; 

   	   have to be implemented in the derived class.
	   These functions must provide the functionality as documented for the public member functions 
	        - double  f(size_t n, const double *x); 
		- void    df(size_t n, const double *x, double *g);
