def nnls(A, b, maxiter=None):
    """
    Solve ``argmin_x || Ax - b ||_2`` for ``x>=0``. This is a wrapper
    for a FORTRAN non-negative least squares solver.

    Parameters
    ----------
    A : ndarray
        Matrix ``A`` as shown above.
    b : ndarray
        Right-hand side vector.
    maxiter: int, optional
        Maximum number of iterations, optional.
        Default is ``3 * A.shape[1]``.

    Returns
    -------
    x : ndarray
        Solution vector.
    rnorm : float
        The residual, ``|| Ax-b ||_2``.

    See Also
    --------
    lsq_linear : Linear least squares with bounds on the variables

    Notes
    -----
    The FORTRAN code was published in the book below. The algorithm
    is an active set method. It solves the KKT (Karush-Kuhn-Tucker)
    conditions for the non-negative least squares problem.
