function [p, stats] = colamdtree (S, knobs)
% COLAMDTREE Column approximate minimum degree permutation (COLAMD), followed
%    by a column elimination tree post-ordering (COLETREE).
%    P = COLAMDTREE(S) returns the column approximate minimum degree permutation
%    vector for the sparse matrix S.  For a non-symmetric matrix S, S (:,P)
%    tends to have sparser LU factors than S.  The Cholesky factorization of
%    S (:,P)' * S (:,P) also tends to be sparser than that of S'*S.  COLAMD
%    tends to be faster than COLMMD and tends to return a better ordering.
%
%    See also COLAMD, SYMAMD, SYMAMDTREE, COLMMD, SYMMMD, SYMRCM, COLPERM.
%
%    Usage:  P = colamdtree (S)
%            P = colamdtree (S, knobs)
%            [P, stats] = colamdtree (S)
%            [P, stats] = colamdtree (S, knobs)
%
%    stats (1) and stats (2) are the number of dense rows and columns
%    ignored in COLAMD, and stats (3) is the number of garbage collections
%    performed.  knobs (1) and knobs (2) control how COLAMD ignores dense
%    rows and columns (similar to spparms ('wh_frac')).
