Oddity with fsolve, nSolve, etc.

However, if one only selects one value as the starting point, as you did, then the (presumably) nearest solution will be returned.

Yes, but I selected zero, and it did not find zero. Instead it found -1, so I think that shows that it does not return a false root if used with a single guess. Where in the documentation do you see the interval form for nSolve ? I only see it shown for fSolve.
