Description: Provides an interface from R to the 'autodiff' library
        <https://autodiff.github.io/>, a modern header-only C++ library
        for automatic differentiation. Unlike numerical
        differentiation, automatic differentiation computes derivatives
        of functions to machine precision without truncation error,
        using either forward or reverse mode. The 'autodiff' header
        files are shipped with this package so that other R packages
        can use them by including 'Rcppautodiff' in the 'LinkingTo'
        field of their 'DESCRIPTION' file. Example programs demonstrate
        computing derivatives of single-variable and multi-variable
        functions, gradient vectors, Jacobian matrices and derivatives
        with respect to parameters, using 'Rcpp' and 'RcppEigen'.
