%%ADSMAX  Alternating directions method for direct search optimization.
%%        [x, fmax, nf] = ADSMAX(FUN, x0, STOPIT, SAVIT, P) attempts to
%%        maximize the function FUN, using the starting vector x0.
%%        The alternating directions direct search method is used.
%%        Output arguments:
%%               x    = vector yielding largest function value found,
%%               fmax = function value at x,
%%               nf   = number of function evaluations.
%%        The iteration is terminated when either
%%               - the relative increase in function value between successive
%%                 iterations is <= STOPIT(1) (default 1e-3),
%%               - STOPIT(2) function evaluations have been performed
%%                 (default inf, i.e., no limit), or
%%               - a function value equals or exceeds STOPIT(3)
%%                 (default inf, i.e., no test on function values).
%%        Progress of the iteration is not shown if STOPIT(5) = 0 (default 1).
%%        If a non-empty fourth parameter string SAVIT is present, then
%%        `SAVE SAVIT x fmax nf' is executed after each inner iteration.
%%        By default, the search directions are the co-ordinate directions.
%%        The columns of a fifth parameter matrix P specify alternative search
%%        directions (P = EYE is the default).
%%        NB: x0 can be a matrix.  In the output argument, in SAVIT saves,
%%            and in function calls, x has the same shape as x0.
%%        ADSMAX(fun, x0, STOPIT, SAVIT, P, P1, P2,...) allows additional
%%        arguments to be passed to fun, via feval(fun,x,P1,P2,...).
