I. Compiling the code:

1. Unzip the file

2. Go to the unzipped directory

3. Download boost library from http://www.boost.org/users/download/ and unzip the file. No compilation for boost library is needed.

4. Specify directories in the file "makefile":
	a. HBOOST : path to where you unzip the boost library
	b. HRLIB : path to R header files, e.g. /usr/share/R/include
	c. HMYDIR : path to the source folder, i.e to the upzipped directory + /src
	d. RLIB = path to the directory containing compiled libraries of R, e.g. /usr/lib/R/lib

5. Run "make"

II. Run the code:

1. Examples are in the file exampleCommands.txt

2. Sample data sets are in directory data
