Secant method

7.11 Write a MATLAB function that implements a line search algorithm using the secant method. The arguments to this function are the name of the M-file for the gradient, the current point, and the search direction. For example, the function may be called linesearchsecant and be used by the function call alpha = linesearchsecant('grad', x, d), where grad.m is the M-file containing the gradient, x is the starting line search point, d is the search direction, and alpha is the value returned by the
