<h2>
Control parameters for S-estimate of location and scale
</h2>

<h3>Description</h3>

<p>Auxiliary function for <code>TML1.noncensored</code>. Typically only used
internally by <code>TML1.noncensored</code>, but may be used to construct a control argument.
This function provides default values.
</p>


<h3>Usage</h3>

<pre>
TML1.noncensored.control.S(tlo = 1e-04, mxf = 50, mxs = 50, ntm = 50,
                           tls = 1e-06, h = 100)
</pre>


<h3>Arguments</h3>

<table summary="R argblock">
<tr valign="top"><td><code>tlo</code></td>
<td>
<p>Relative tolerance in the iterative algorithms.</p>
</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>mxf</code></td>
<td>
<p>Maximum number of iterations in computing the location estimate.</p>
</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>mxs</code></td>
<td>
<p>Maximum number of iterations in computing the scale estimate.</p>
</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>ntm</code></td>
<td>
<p>Parameter used in iteration monitoring. When the number of iterations
is a multiple of ntm, the current parameter values are printed.</p>
</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>tls</code></td>
<td>
<p>Tolerance for denominators. If a scale estimate is less than tls, the scale
estimate is set equal to tls.</p>
</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>h</code></td>
<td>
<p>The number of subdivisions of the interval (min(yi), max(yi)) used is the
computation of the estimate <i>&lambda;^(0)</i>.</p>
</td></tr>
</table>


<h3>Value</h3>

<p>List containing the desired values for each of the control parameters, plus the value
Beta0 of <i>&beta;</i>.
