/**
 * Fitter for parametric univariate real functions y = f(x).
 * <br/>
 * When a univariate real function y = f(x) does depend on some
 * unknown parameters p<sub>0</sub>, p<sub>1</sub> ... p<sub>n-1</sub>,
 * this class can be used to find these parameters. It does this
 * by <em>fitting</em> the curve so it remains very close to a set of
 * observed points (x<sub>0</sub>, y<sub>0</sub>), (x<sub>1</sub>,
 * y<sub>1</sub>) ... (x<sub>k-1</sub>, y<sub>k-1</sub>). This fitting
 * is done by finding the parameters values that minimizes the objective
 * function &sum;(y<sub>i</sub>-f(x<sub>i</sub>))<sup>2</sup>. This is
 * really a least squares problem.
 *
 * @param <T> Function to use for the fit.
