Description

For a symbolic input function f, returns the symbolic Hessian matrix. A real time saver imho -_-
I don't know how useful anyone will find this, but eh, my professor made us do it on the test, so I figure this will save at least someone the headache of having to find the Hessian by hand (provided they are allowed to use computers).
Requires Symbolic Math Toolbox.

Cripes
just discovered a bug with it.
The findsym function is so retarded! WHY DID THEY PUT COMMAS AND SPACES IN THE VECTOR?!
It dies on you if you have variable names with more than one character in their name....working on a fix for it.
sorry :(

Fixed the problem with multi-character variable names (sorta).
Now, you have to input the list of variable names yourself.
A pain-in-butt, but hey, its better than doing it by hand!
