// Description: This file contains the class definition for SecantLineSearch.
// This performs the search for U(i+1) = U(i) + eta * deltaU(i) by using the 
// secant method to find the best solution.
//
//                eta(j+1) = eta(j) -  s(j) * (eta(j-1)-eta(j))
//                                     ------------------------
//                                           s(j-1) - s(j)
//
// where     s(j) = U(i+1,j) ^ R(U(i+1, j))
//
//  and      U(i+1,j) = U(i) + eta(j)*deltaU(i)
