# maximumIterations

The maximum number of iterations.

## Declaration

```swift
var maximumIterations: Int
```

## Discussion

Discussion More iterations will produce better models as long as there is no over-fitting. Over-fitting happens when the dropout probability is too low or there is not enough training data. note: This parameter is only used by the fitted method. When using the update method it’s up to you to decide when to stop.
