"Solving systems of nonlinear equations is perhaps the most difficult problem in all of numerical computations," Rice [7, 1993, p. 355].
"We make an extreme, but wholly defensible, statement: There are no good, general methods for solving systems of more than one nonlinear equation. Furthermore, it is not hard to see why (very likely) there never will be any good, general methods," Press, Teukolsky, Vetterling, and Flannery [6, 2007, p. 473].
"Solving a system of nonlinear equations is a problem that is avoided where possible, customarily by approximating the nonlinear system by a system of linear equations. When this is unsatisfactory, the problem must be tackled directly," Burden, Faires, and Burden [1, 2016, page 642].
Using qb64v1000-win [8], the following computer program seeks to solve simultaneously Brown's almost linear system of 5000 equations; see Morgan [5, page 15], Floudas [2, page 660], and Han and Han [3, page 227, Example 3]. While line 94 and line 128 of the preceding paper are 94 A(KK) = RND * 5 and 128 FOR I = 1 TO 400000 STEP 1, respectively, here line 94 and line 128 are 94 A(KK) = RND * 3 and 128 FOR I = 1 TO 2000000 STEP 1, respectively.

This computer program was run with qb64v1000-win [8]. Copied by hand from the screen, the computer program’s complete output through JJJJ= -31996 is shown below.

Above there is no rounding by hand; it is just straight copying by hand from the screen.
Of the 5000 values for the 5000 unknowns, only the 19 A's of line 1912 through line 1939 of the computer program above are shown above.
On a personal computer with a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHz, 2.50 GHz, 960 MB of RAM and with qb64v1000-win [8], the wall-clock time for obtaining the output through JJJJ= -31996 was 80 minutes.
