minimization of functions of several variables

Hello,

I have encountered a problem of finding a minimum of a function of several variables in a situation when finding the derivatives is complicated (impossible). In GSL there seems to be only the simulated annealing algorithm implemented that suits. Has anybody tried it in the multidimensional case?

Thanks in advance

Pavel
