Comment(by kcrisman):

 Here's another example where `brent` does better.
 {{{
 sage: j(x) = sin(x^8)-.1*x
 sage: optimize.brent(j._fast_float_(x),brack=(0,2),full_output=True)
 (2.0000389609484905, -1.2000038913452364, 22, 23)
 sage: optimize.fminbound(j._fast_float_(x),0,2,full_output=True)
 (1.5288339777087034, -1.152883200877608, 0, 16)
 }}}
 Of course, this does cause problems for my supposed algorithm to then go
 back to an endpoint, since it's ''just'' outside of it...
