Fit status documentation

This documentation is too brief. What are the possible values that Status() returns and what to they mean?

https://root.cern.ch/root/html/ROOT__Fit__FitResult.html#ROOT__Fit__FitResult:Status

I think this information should be easier to find.

Thanks

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

This is what that documentation should say:

“The values depend on the actual minimizer used; see e.g. TMinuit::GetStatus().”

Now, the doc for TMinuit::GetStatus() is broken, too; e.g. TMinuit::Contour sets it but the doc on TMinuit::GetStatus() doesn’t tell.

@moneta could both be improved, please?

Cheers, Axel.
