<dd><p>A variant of <code>fzero</code>. Finds a zero of a vector-valued
multivariate function where each output element only depends on the
input element with the same index (so the Jacobian is diagonal).
</p>
<p><var>fun</var> should be a handle or name of a function returning a column
vector.  <var>x0</var> should be a two-column matrix, each row specifying
two points which bracket a zero of the respective output element of
<var>fun</var>.
</p>
<p>If <var>x0</var> is a single-column matrix then several nearby and distant
values are probed in an attempt to obtain a valid bracketing.  If
this is not successful, the function fails. <var>options</var> is a
structure specifying additional options. Currently, <code>vfzero</code>
recognizes these options: <code>&quot;FunValCheck&quot;</code>, <code>&quot;OutputFcn&quot;</code>,
<code>&quot;TolX&quot;</code>, <code>&quot;MaxIter&quot;</code>, <code>&quot;MaxFunEvals&quot;</code>. For a
description of these options, see optimset.
</p>
<p>On exit, the function returns <var>x</var>, the approximate zero and
<var>fval</var>, the function value thereof. <var>info</var> is a column vector
of exit flags  that can have these values:
</p>
<ul>
<li> 1 The algorithm converged to a solution.

</li><li> 0 Maximum number of iterations or function evaluations has been
reached.

</li><li> -1 The algorithm has been terminated from user output function.

</li><li> -5 The algorithm may have converged to a singular point.
</li></ul>

<p><var>output</var> is a structure containing runtime information about the
<code>fzero</code> algorithm.  Fields in the structure are:
</p>
<ul>
<li> iterations Number of iterations through loop.

</li><li> nfev Number of function evaluations.

</li><li> bracketx A two-column matrix with the final bracketing of the
zero along the x-axis.

</li><li> brackety A two-column matrix with the final bracketing of the
zero along the y-axis.
</li></ul>
