+// Computation of the Jacobian matrix for vector-valued functions of multiple
+// variables, using automatic differentiation based on the implementation of
+// dual numbers in jet.h. Before reading the rest of this file, it is adivsable
+// to read jet.h's header comment in detail.
+//
+// The helper wrapper AutoDiff::Differentiate() computes the jacobian of
+// functors with templated operator() taking this form:
+//
+// struct F {
+// template<typename T>
+// bool operator(const T *x, const T *y, ..., T *z) {
+// // Compute z[] based on x[], y[], ...
+// // return true if computation succeeded, false otherwise.
+// }
+// };
+//
+// All inputs and outputs may be vector-valued.
+//
+// To understand how jets are used to compute the jacobian, a
+// picture may help. Consider a vector-valued function, F, returning 3
+// dimensions and taking a vector-valued parameter of 4 dimensions:
+//
+// y x
+// [ * ] F [ * ]
+// [ * ] <--- [ * ]
+// [ * ] [ * ]
+// [ * ]
+//
+// Similar to the 2-parameter example for f described in jet.h, computing the
+// jacobian dy/dx is done by substutiting a suitable jet object for x and all
+// intermediate steps of the computation of F. Since x is has 4 dimensions, use
+// a Jet<double, 4>.
+//
+// Before substituting a jet object for x, the dual components are set
+// appropriately for each dimension of x:
+//
+// y x
+// [ * | * * * * ] f [ * | 1 0 0 0 ] x0
+// [ * | * * * * ] <--- [ * | 0 1 0 0 ] x1
+// [ * | * * * * ] [ * | 0 0 1 0 ] x2
+// ---+--- [ * | 0 0 0 1 ] x3
+// | ^ ^ ^ ^
+// dy/dx | | | +----- infinitesimal for x3
+// | | +------- infinitesimal for x2
+// | +--------- infinitesimal for x1
+// +----------- infinitesimal for x0
+//
+// The reason to set the internal 4x4 submatrix to the identity is that we wish
+// to take the derivative of y separately with respect to each dimension of x.
+// Each column of the 4x4 identity is therefore for a single component of the
+// independent variable x.
+//
+// Then the jacobian of the mapping, dy/dx, is the 3x4 sub-matrix of the
+// extended y vector, indicated in the above diagram.
+//
+// Functors with multiple parameters
+// ---------------------------------
+// In practice, it is often convenient to use a function f of two or more
+// vector-valued parameters, for example, x[3] and z[6]. Unfortunately, the jet
+// framework is designed for a single-parameter vector-valued input. The wrapper
+// in this file addresses this issue adding support for functions with one or
+// more parameter vectors.
+//
+// To support multiple parameters, all the parameter vectors are concatenated
+// into one and treated as a single parameter vector, except that since the
+// functor expects different inputs, we need to construct the jets as if they
+// were part of a single parameter vector. The extended jets are passed
+// separately for each parameter.
+//
+// For example, consider a functor F taking two vector parameters, p[2] and
+// q[3], and producing an output y[4]:
+//
+// struct F {
+// template<typename T>
+// bool operator(const T *p, const T *q, T *z) {
+// // ...
+// }
+// };
+//
+// In this case, the necessary jet type is Jet<double, 5>. Here is a
+// visualization of the jet objects in this case:
+//
+// Dual components for p ----+
+// |
+// -+-
+// y [ * | 1 0 | 0 0 0 ] --- p[0]
+// [ * | 0 1 | 0 0 0 ] --- p[1]
+// [ * | . . | + + + ] |
+// [ * | . . | + + + ] v
+// [ * | . . | + + + ] <--- F(p, q)
+// [ * | . . | + + + ] ^
+// ^^^ ^^^^^ |
+// dy/dp dy/dq [ * | 0 0 | 1 0 0 ] --- q[0]
+// [ * | 0 0 | 0 1 0 ] --- q[1]
+// [ * | 0 0 | 0 0 1 ] --- q[2]
+// --+--
+// |
+// Dual components for q --------------+
+//
+// where the 4x2 submatrix (marked with ".") and 4x3 submatrix (marked with "+"
+// of y in the above diagram are the derivatives of y with respect to p and q
+// respectively. This is how autodiff works for functors taking multiple vector
+// valued arguments (up to 6).
+//
+// Jacobian NULL pointers
+// ----------------------
+// In general, the functions below will accept NULL pointers for all or some of
+// the Jacobian parameters, meaning that those Jacobians will not be computed.
