Description
Hi, I am running an MCMC on R and with Gibbs sampler method in R code I used an R function uniroot() which helps me search the interval from lower to upper for a root (i.e., zero) of the function f with respect to its first argument. I wonder if there is a function contained in RStan function that can do similar things. Thank you very much.

Research direction
The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by checking RStan's documented functions and its existing numerical-solver support, then compare that with R's uniroot() behavior. Done would require a clear answer about whether an equivalent exists or a defined implementation scope.
