   3   %
   4   % Solve the system,
   5   %
   6   %   Ax = b
   7   %
   8   % iteratively using Jacobi iterations. That is, we let,
   9   %
  10   %   A = M - N = D - (L + U)
  11   %
  12   % where D is a diagonal matrix consisting of the diagonal entries of
  13   % A (the rest zeros), and N = (L + U) are the remaining upper- and
  14   % lower-triangular parts of A. Now,
  15   %
  16   %   Ax = (M - N)x = Mx - Nx = b
  17   %
  18   % has solution,
  19   %
  20   %   x = M^(-1)*(Nx + b)
  21   %
  22   % Thus, our iterations are of the form,
  23   %
  24   %   x_{k+1} = M^(-1)*(Nx_{k} + b)

  26   % INPUT:
  27   %
  28   %   ``A`` -- The n-by-n coefficient matrix of the system.
  29   %
  30   %   ``b`` -- An n-by-1 vector; the right-hand side of the system.
  31   %
  32   %   ``x0`` -- An n-by-1 vector; an initial guess to the solution.
  33   %
  34   %   ``tolerance`` -- (optional; default: 1e-10) the stopping tolerance.
  35   %                    we stop when the relative error (the infinity norm
  36   %                     of the residual divided by the infinity norm of
  37   %                     ``b``) is less than ``tolerance``.
  38   %
  39   %   ``max_iterations`` -- (optional; default: intmax) the maximum
  40   %                         number of iterations we will perform.
  41   %
  42   % OUTPUT:
  43   %
  44   %   ``x`` -- An n-by-1 vector; the approximate solution to the system.
  45   %
  46   %   ``iterations`` -- The number of iterations taken.
  47   %
  48   %   ``residual_norms`` -- An n-by-iterations vector of the residual
  49   %                         (infinity)norms at each iteration. If not
  50   %                         requested, they will not be computed to
  51   %                         save space.
