// particular ordering. The ordering is critical, since it defines the mapping
// between (residual, parameter) pairs and a position in the jacobian of the
// objective function. Various parts of Ceres transform one Program into
// another; for example, the first stage of solving involves stripping all
// constant parameters and residuals. This is in contrast with Problem, which is
