Question/documentation request: What is the difference between some of the foceiControl() arguments?

[billdenney]

I want to run a single iteration of focei optimization (the equivalent of NONMEM's MAXEVAL = 0). When looking at the arguments to foceiControl(), I'm not sure how to interpret the differences between some of the arguments.

eval.max, iter.max, maxInnerIterations, maxOuterIterations, and n1qn1nsim all look similar to me. Can you please help me understand what the differences are between them (and likely a documentation update would help, too)?

The equivalent is using est="posthoc" though maxOuterIterations=0 is equivalent. Other than maxInnerIterations, all the other options relate to the optimization method used.
