The user should initialize the vector,x, with the initial guess
for the nonlinear solve prior to calling <A HREF="../SNES/SNESSolve.html#SNESSolve">SNESSolve</A>. In particular,
to employ an initial guess of zero, the user should explicitly set
this vector to zero by calling <A HREF="../Vec/VecSet.html#VecSet">VecSet</A>().
