## @deftypefn  {Function File} {} fsolve (@var{fcn}, @var{x0}, @var{options})
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {[@var{x}, @var{fvec}, @var{info}, @var{output}, @var{fjac}] =} fsolve (@var{fcn}, @dots{})
## Solve a system of nonlinear equations defined by the function @var{fcn}.
## @var{fcn} should accept a vector (array) defining the unknown variables,
## and return a vector of left-hand sides of the equations.  Right-hand sides
## are defined to be zeros.
## In other words, this function attempts to determine a vector @var{x} such
## that @code{@var{fcn} (@var{x})} gives (approximately) all zeros.
## @var{x0} determines a starting guess.  The shape of @var{x0} is preserved
## in all calls to @var{fcn}, but otherwise it is treated as a column vector.
## @var{options} is a structure specifying additional options.
## Currently, @code{fsolve} recognizes these options:
## @code{"FunValCheck"}, @code{"OutputFcn"}, @code{"TolX"},
## @code{"TolFun"}, @code{"MaxIter"}, @code{"MaxFunEvals"},
## @code{"Jacobian"}, @code{"Updating"}, @code{"ComplexEqn"}
## @code{"TypicalX"}, @code{"AutoScaling"} and @code{"FinDiffType"}.
##
## If @code{"Jacobian"} is @code{"on"}, it specifies that @var{fcn},
## called with 2 output arguments, also returns the Jacobian matrix
## of right-hand sides at the requested point.  @code{"TolX"} specifies
## the termination tolerance in the unknown variables, while
## @code{"TolFun"} is a tolerance for equations.  Default is @code{1e-7}
## for both @code{"TolX"} and @code{"TolFun"}.
##
## If @code{"AutoScaling"} is on, the variables will be automatically scaled
## according to the column norms of the (estimated) Jacobian.  As a result,
## TolF becomes scaling-independent.  By default, this option is off, because
## it may sometimes deliver unexpected (though mathematically correct) results.
##
## If @code{"Updating"} is "on", the function will attempt to use Broyden
## updates to update the Jacobian, in order to reduce the amount of Jacobian
## calculations.
## If your user function always calculates the Jacobian (regardless of number
## of output arguments), this option provides no advantage and should be set to
## false.
##
## @code{"ComplexEqn"} is @code{"on"}, @code{fsolve} will attempt to solve
## complex equations in complex variables, assuming that the equations possess a
## complex derivative (i.e., are holomorphic).  If this is not what you want,
## should unpack the real and imaginary parts of the system to get a real
## system.
##
## For description of the other options, see @code{optimset}.
##
## On return, @var{fval} contains the value of the function @var{fcn}
## evaluated at @var{x}, and @var{info} may be one of the following values:
##
## @table @asis
## @item 1
## Converged to a solution point.  Relative residual error is less than
## specified by TolFun.
##
## @item 2
## Last relative step size was less that TolX.
##
## @item 3
## Last relative decrease in residual was less than TolF.
##
## @item 0
## Iteration limit exceeded.
##
## @item -3
## The trust region radius became excessively small.
## @end table
##
## Note: If you only have a single nonlinear equation of one variable, using
## @code{fzero} is usually a much better idea.
##
## Note about user-supplied Jacobians:
## As an inherent property of the algorithm, Jacobian is always requested for a
## solution vector whose residual vector is already known, and it is the last
## accepted successful step.  Often this will be one of the last two calls, but
## not always.  If the savings by reusing intermediate results from residual
## calculation in Jacobian calculation are significant, the best strategy is to
## employ OutputFcn: After a vector is evaluated for residuals, if OutputFcn is
## called with that vector, then the intermediate results should be saved for
## future Jacobian evaluation, and should be kept until a Jacobian evaluation
## is requested or until outputfcn is called with a different vector, in which
## case they should be dropped in favor of this most recent vector.  A short
## example how this can be achieved follows:
##
## @example
## function [fvec, fjac] = user_func (x, optimvalues, state)
## persistent sav = [], sav0 = [];
## if (nargin == 1)
##   ## evaluation call
##   if (nargout == 1)
##     sav0.x = x; # mark saved vector
##     ## calculate fvec, save results to sav0.
##   elseif (nargout == 2)
##     ## calculate fjac using sav.
##   endif
## else
##   ## outputfcn call.
##   if (all (x == sav0.x))
##     sav = sav0;
##   endif
##   ## maybe output iteration status, etc.
## endif
