function c = mycondest(A)
%CONDEST 1-norm condition number estimate.
%   C = CONDEST(A) computes a lower bound C for the 1-norm condition
%   number of a square matrix A.
%
%   Example:
%	c = mycondest(A)
%
%   Uses block 1-norm power method of Higham and Tisseur.
%
%   See also NORMEST1, COND, NORM.
