我正在编写一个程序来计算Feigenbaum的常数使用物流方程通过查找superstable值，然后使用这些superstable值的比率来计算常数。程序似乎冻结了尽管在早期迭代功能
我使用BigDecimals几乎所有的值，这样我就可以在计算常量时保持必要的精确度。
我适应我的代码从C++代码上的以下文件的30-35页：http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:xabTioRiF0IJ:home.simula.no/~logg/pub/reports/chaos_hw1.ps.gz+&cd=21&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us
我怀疑什么程序做事情，甚至我的问题。我运行该程序，它似乎工作。我得到的前4个超值表达式的输出结果和前2个d是预期的结果，但是在显示这4行后，程序似乎停止了。我没有例外，但是即使在等待30分钟后，也不会输出更多计算结果。我无法弄清楚究竟是什么造成的，因为每一行的计算时间应该大致相同，但它显然不是。这里是我的输出：
Feigenbaum constant calculation (using superstable points):
j a d
-----------------------------------------------------
1 2.0 N/A
2 3.23606797749979 N/A

这里是我的代码：

// If there is a stable cycle, the iterates of 1/2 converge to the cycle.

编辑： 菲尔·施泰茨的回答根本上解决我的问题。我看了一些线程转储，并做了一些研究，试图了解他们，和编译我的程序与调试信息后，我能找到主线程在行拖延：
dval = Dfda(fval).add(Dfdx(a, fval).multiply(dval));
菲尔Steit的说，通过这不仅行使用
MathContext.DECIMAL128
：在方法楼DFDA和Dfdx
dval = Dfda(fval).add(Dfdx(a, fval).multiply(dval));
而且在我的乘法运算，我能得到我的代码正常工作。
我使用DECIMAL128，因为较小的精度使计算无法正常工作，因为我将它们与容差检查的这种低数字进行比较。
您是否尝试过使用一些线程转储来查看进程可能挂起的位置？ – Leon 2013-04-07 21:09:58
我会建议你使用调试器，看看你的代码在阻塞线程转储时正在做什么。没有人会通过所有这些代码寻找一个错误。 – 2013-04-07 21:10:36
bmorris591，你会推荐什么调试器？我没有任何类型的调试器的经验。 – mps62 2013-04-07 21:18:08
