Hi all,
Is it possible to create a function called let's say "solvef":
IDL> x=solvef(a,'f')
that returns x the solution of f(x,a)=0 ?
Thanks for any suggestion.

Ok, after a long week-end spend in the IDL6 "stupid PDF" help, I give
myself an answer.
function myfunc,x
common myfunca,a
return,f(x,a)
end
function solvef,b
common myfunca,a
a=b
x=fx_root([0,1,2],'myfunc')
return,x
end
I was missing the common block trick.
Thanks for your answers and procedures,
but they are way too complicated for me.
