midPoints

Creates an input map centered at the mid-points of all the input variables

The mid-point of each input variable's range as mutable map. The key is the name of the input variable, and the value is the mid-point of the variable's range. This can be used to generate a starting point for the problem based on the mid-point of the input variable ranges. Or, you can change the associated value for a particular input variable to generate a starting point that is not based on the mid-point of the variable's range. Then, use the toInputMap function to convert the map into an input map that can be used as a starting point for the problem.
