Further information
User functions allow extremely complex, recursive or non-algebraic expressions to be included in nonlinear formulae. As such they may make use of simulators or other black box evaluators. The actual parameters to a user function depend upon the way it is bound to the model by the
F function. Please see the chapter on user functions for more details. Communication with Excel carries significant overhead and performance degradation may result from using functions of this type.
