function [net, options, varargout] = netopt(net, options, x, t, alg);
%NETOPT	Optimize the weights in a network model. 
%
%	Description
%
%	NETOPT is a helper function which facilitates the training of
%	networks using the general purpose optimizers as well as sampling
%	from the posterior distribution of parameters using general purpose
%	Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling algorithms. It can be used with any
%	function that searches in parameter space using error and gradient
%	functions.
%
%	[NET, OPTIONS] = NETOPT(NET, OPTIONS, X, T, ALG) takes a network
%	data structure NET, together with a vector OPTIONS of parameters
%	governing the behaviour of the optimization algorithm, a matrix X of
%	input vectors and a matrix T of target vectors, and returns the
%	trained network as well as an updated OPTIONS vector. The string ALG
%	determines which optimization algorithm (CONJGRAD, QUASINEW, SCG,
%	etc.) or Monte Carlo algorithm (such as HMC) will be used.
%
%	[NET, OPTIONS, VARARGOUT] = NETOPT(NET, OPTIONS, X, T, ALG) also
%	returns any additional return values from the optimisation algorithm.
%
