% function [sol, it_hist, ierr] = nsol(x,f,tol,parms)
%
% inputs:
%        initial iterate = x
%		 function = f
%        tol = [atol, rtol] relative/absolute
%			error tolerances
%	 parms = [maxit, isham, rsham]
%			maxit = maxmium number of iterations
%				default = 40
%		isham, rsham: The Jacobian matrix is
% 		computed and factored after isham
%               updates of x or whenever the ratio
%		of successive infinity norms of the
%               nonlinear residual exceeds rsham.
%			isham = 1, rsham = 0 is Newton's method,
%			isham = -1, rsham = 1 is the chord method,
% 			isham = m, rsham = 1 is the Shamanskii method
%      	       defaults = [40, 1000, .5]
%
% output:
%	sol = solution
%	it_hist = infinity norms of nonlinear residuals
%			for the iteration
%	ierr = 0 upon successful termination
%	ierr = 1 if either after maxit iterations
%             the termination criterion is not satsified
%             or the ratio of successive nonlinear residuals
%             exceeds 1. In this latter case, the iteration
%				is terminted.
