Examples
</h2>
An example of the use of this function to bracket the minimum of a function
<CODE>f</CODE> in the direction <CODE>sd</CODE> can be found in <CODE>linemin</CODE>
<PRE>

[min, mid, max, nevals]] = minbrack('linef', 0.0, 1.0, fa, f, pt, dir);
</PRE>

where the function <CODE>linef</CODE> is used to turn a general function <CODE>f</CODE>
into a one dimensional one.
