Demonstrates the use of optimization methods on the "banana"
(or Rosenbrock) function,
f(x,y) = 0.5(x - 1)2 + 50*(y - x2)2 Choice between 6 differents methods, combined with 3 types of line search. |

| Data fitting | Choice of parameters in a nonlinear model
of given data points. You can interactively choose the parameter values or you can call an optimizer that returns the optimal choice (in the least squares sense). |
