continuation

Cause Dakota to step toward the failed "target" simulation from a nearby successful "source"

## Specification

Alias: none

Argument(s): none

## Description

When `failure_capture` `continuation` is enabled and an evaluation fails, then Dakota will attempt to march incrementally from a previous good evaluation (the "source") toward the failing one (the "target"). Further details about the algorithm employed by Dakota are supplied in the User's Manual [4].
