C***DESCRIPTION
C
C   This subroutine is a companion routine to SNLS1,SNLS1E,SNSQ,and
C   SNSQE which may be used to check the calculation of the Jacobian.
C
C     SUBROUTINE CHKDER
C
C     This subroutine checks the gradients of M nonlinear functions
C     in N variables, evaluated at a point X, for consistency with
C     the functions themselves. The user must call CKDER twice,
C     first with MODE = 1 and then with MODE = 2.
C
C     MODE = 1. On input, X must contain the point of evaluation.
C               On output, XP is set to a neighboring point.
C
C     MODE = 2. On input, FVEC must contain the functions and the
C                         rows of FJAC must contain the gradients
C                         of the respective functions each evaluated
C                         at X, and FVECP must contain the functions
C                         evaluated at XP.
C               On output, ERR contains measures of correctness of
C                          the respective gradients.
C
C     The subroutine does not perform reliably if cancellation or
C     rounding errors cause a severe loss of significance in the
C     evaluation of a function. Therefore, none of the components
C     of X should be unusually small (in particular, zero) or any
C     other value which may cause loss of significance.
C
C     The SUBROUTINE statement is
C
C       SUBROUTINE CHKDER(M,N,X,FVEC,FJAC,LDFJAC,XP,FVECP,MODE,ERR)
C
C     where
C
C       M is a positive integer input variable set to the number
C         of functions.
C
C       N is a positive integer input variable set to the number
C         of variables.
C
C       X is an input array of length N.
C
C       FVEC is an array of length M. On input when MODE = 2,
C         FVEC must contain the functions evaluated at X.
C
C       FJAC is an M by N array. On input when MODE = 2,
C         the rows of FJAC must contain the gradients of
C         the respective functions evaluated at X.
C
C       LDFJAC is a positive integer input parameter not less than M
C         which specifies the leading dimension of the array FJAC.
C
C       XP is an array of length N. On output when MODE = 1,
C         XP is set to a neighboring point of X.
C
C       FVECP is an array of length M. On input when MODE = 2,
C         FVECP must contain the functions evaluated at XP.
C
C       MODE is an integer input variable set to 1 on the first call
C         and 2 on the second. Other values of MODE are equivalent
C         to MODE = 1.
C
C       ERR is an array of length M. On output when MODE = 2,
C         ERR contains measures of correctness of the respective
C         gradients. If there is no severe loss of significance,
C         then if ERR(I) is 1.0 the I-th gradient is correct,
C         while if ERR(I) is 0.0 the I-th gradient is incorrect.
C         For values of ERR between 0.0 and 1.0, the categorization
C         is less certain. In general, a value of ERR(I) greater
C         than 0.5 indicates that the I-th gradient is probably
C         correct, while a value of ERR(I) less than 0.5 indicates
C         that the I-th gradient is probably incorrect.
