I uploaded code for nonlinear optimization via simplex method of Nelder and
Mead, to files/simplex section.

The origin of this code is somewhat unclear.  I wrote this particular
version using tx-math as a basis - however the tx-math code is clearly
copied from numerical recipes in C.  I think the present implementation is
sufficiently different from the predecessors - however, I'm not a lawyer.
