M2EEl:

Path: SC/BasicOrbit

% Eccentric anomaly for an ellipse.
   Computed from the mean anomaly and the eccentricity. The user can optionally 
   specify a tolerance and maximum number of iterations.

   For a demo plot call M2EEl( ecc ).

   Since version 1.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Form:
   eccAnom = M2EEl( ecc, meanAnom, tol, nMax )   or
   eccAnom = M2EEl( ecc, meanAnom, tol )         or
   eccAnom = M2EEl( ecc, meanAnom)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

   ------
   Inputs
   ------
   ecc            (1,:) Eccentricity
   meanAnom       (1,:) Mean anomaly
   tol            (1,1) Tolerance(optional, default is 1e-8)
   nMax           (1,1) Maximum number of iterations
                        (optional, default is no maximum. Can
                        only be input if tol is also specified.)

   Outputs
