\title{MxBounds Class}
\description{
MxBounds is an S4 class. New instances of this class can
be created using the function \link{mxBounds}.
}
\details{
The MxBounds class has the following slots:
\tabular{rcl}{
\tab \tab \cr
min \tab - \tab The lower bound \cr
max \tab - \tab The upper bound \cr
parameters \tab - \tab The vector of parameter names \cr
}
The 'min' and 'max' slots hold scalar numeric values for the lower and upper bounds on the list of parameters, respectively.
Parameters may be any free parameter or parameters from an \link{MxMatrix} object. Parameters may be referenced either by name or by referring to their position in the 'spec' matrix of an \code{MxMatrix} object. To affect an estimation or optimization, an MxBounds object must be included in an \link{MxModel} object with all referenced \link{MxAlgebra} and \link{MxMatrix} objects.
Slots may be referenced with the $ symbol. See the documentation for \link[methods]{Classes} and the examples in the \link{mxBounds} document for more information.
