  SNESNCG - Nonlinear Conjugate-Gradient method for the solution of general nonlinear systems.

  Level: beginner

  Options Database:
+   -snes_ncg_type <fr, prp, dy, hs, cd> - Choice of conjugate-gradient update parameter, default is prp.
.   -snes_linesearch_type <cp,l2,basic> - Line search type.
-   -snes_ncg_monitor - Print the beta values used in the ncg iteration, .

   Notes:
    This solves the nonlinear system of equations F(x) = 0 using the nonlinear generalization of the conjugate
          gradient method.  This may be used with a nonlinear preconditioner used to pick the new search directions, but otherwise
          chooses the initial search direction as F(x) for the initial guess x.

          Only supports left non-linear preconditioning.

    Default line search is SNESLINESEARCHCP, unless a nonlinear preconditioner is used with -npc_snes_type <type>, SNESSetNPC(), or SNESGetNPC() then
    SNESLINESEARCHL2 is used. Also supports the special purpose line search SNESLINESEARCHNCGLINEAR
