Abstract
A globally convergent algorithm for solving sets of nonlinear equations was applied to resistive circuits. Criteria for convergence of the algorithm coincide with very broad sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions. Some of the features of a simple implementation of the algorithm are discussed briefly. The combination of the basic method with a quasi-Newton method and the exploitation of linear structure leads to an efficient and reliable algorithm
