Creates an instance. The function f will have the following properties: 

 
f(0) = initValue
 
numCall is the inflexion point
 
slope = f'(numCall)

Params:
initValue – Initial value, i.e. value(0).
slope – Value of the function derivative at numCall.
numCall – Inflexion point.
Throws:
NotStrictlyPositiveException – if initValue <= 0.
NumberIsTooLargeException – if slope >= 0.
NotStrictlyPositiveException – if numCall <= 0./**
