"""
Minimize a function func using the L-BFGS-B algorithm.
Parameters
----------
func : callable f(x, *args)
Function to minimise.
x0 : ndarray
Initial guess.
fprime : callable fprime(x, *args)
The gradient of `func`. If None, then `func` returns the function
value and the gradient (``f, g = func(x, *args)``), unless
`approx_grad` is True in which case `func` returns only ``f``.
args : tuple
Arguments to pass to `func` and `fprime`.
approx_grad : bool
Whether to approximate the gradient numerically (in which case
`func` returns only the function value).
bounds : list
``(min, max)`` pairs for each element in ``x``, defining
the bounds on that parameter. Use None for one of ``min`` or
``max`` when there is no bound in that direction.
m : int
The maximum number of variable metric corrections
used to define the limited memory matrix. (The limited memory BFGS
method does not store the full hessian but uses this many terms in an
approximation to it.)
factr : float
The iteration stops when
``(f^k - f^{k+1})/max{|f^k|,|f^{k+1}|,1} <= factr * eps``,
where ``eps`` is the machine precision, which is automatically
generated by the code. Typical values for `factr` are: 1e12 for
low accuracy; 1e7 for moderate accuracy; 10.0 for extremely
high accuracy.
pgtol : float
The iteration will stop when
``max{|proj g_i | i = 1, ..., n} <= pgtol``
where ``pg_i`` is the i-th component of the projected gradient.
epsilon : float
Step size used when `approx_grad` is True, for numerically
calculating the gradient
iprint : int
Controls the frequency of output. ``iprint < 0`` means no output.
maxfun : int
Maximum number of function evaluations.
Returns
-------
x : ndarray
Estimated position of the minimum.
f : float
Value of `func` at the minimum.
d : dict
Information dictionary.
d['warnflag'] is
0 if converged,
1 if too many function evaluations,
2 if stopped for another reason, given in d['task']
d['grad'] is the gradient at the minimum (should be 0 ish)
d['funcalls'] is the number of function calls made.
