-Fitting Integer Parameters
---------------------------
-
-Most of the parameters in SasView models will naturally take floating point (decimal) 
-values, but there are some parameters which can only have integer values. Examples 
-include, but are not limited to, the number of shells in a multilayer vesicle, the 
-number of beads in a pearl necklace, the number of arms of a star polymer, and so on.
-Wherever possible/recognised, the integer nature of a parameter is specified in the 
-respective model documentation and/or parameter table, so read the documentation 
-carefully!
-
-Integer parameters must be fitted with care.
-
-Start with your best possible guess for the value of the parameter. And using 
-*a priori* knowledge, fix as many of the other parameters as possible.
- 
-The SasView optimizers treat integer parameters internally as floating point 
-numbers, but the values presented to the user are truncated or rounded, as 
-appropriate.
-
-In most instances integer parameters will probably be greater than zero. A good 
-policy in such cases is to use a constraint to enforce this.
-
-Because an integer parameter should, by definition, only move in integer steps, 
-problems may be encountered if the optimizer step size is too small. Similarly, 
-be **very careful** about applying polydispersity to integer parameters.
-
-The Levenberg-Marquardt and Quasi-Newton BFGS (and other derivative-based) 
-optimizers are probably best avoided for fitting models with integer parameters.
