[R] Curve fitting

[J C Nash]

Generally nlsr package has better reliability in getting parameter estimates
because it tries to use automatic derivatives rather than a rather poor numerical
estimate, and also uses a Levenberg-Marquardt stabilization of the linearized
model. However, nls() can sometimes be a bit more flexible.
