MINPACK - Least Squares Minimization

MINPACK is a small collection of routines for the solution of a set of N nonlinear equations in N unknowns using Powell's method, and for the minimization of M nonlinear functions in N unknowns, using the Levenberg-Marquardt method. The user may supply the jacobian matrix or have it approximated by finite differences.
