&lt;p&gt;... And now that I think of it, rather than writing a stand-alone OO module "Math::Brent::OO" as suggested above, it probably would make more sense to write a sub-class of [mod://Math::Polynomial]. There's even instructions on how to do it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So for the sake of the [mod://Math::Brent] users, just fix the bugs there, and create separately Math::Polynomial::Brent, with methods find_minima(), bracket_minimum(), brent(), and minimise_1d() (yeah, I de-camelcased the function names).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If it sounds like I'm dumping work on you, I'd be happy to help out and write code. Let me know via jgamble@cpan.org.&lt;/p&gt;</field>
