Implementation of median polish algorithm in C++

I did these experiments on a mac. The compiler that comes with Xcode doesn't have openmp installed. The following command installs homebrew version which includes openmp. brew install gcc --without-multilib.

The C++ scripts are then compiled with the following (where x is replaced with 1, 2 or 3) /usr/local/Cellar/gcc/7.2.0/bin/g++-7 median_polish/median_polish-vx.cpp -o median_polish/median_polish-vx.out -fopenmp.

After compiling the C++ code. Generate the test data with the command python makedata.py.

Next run the experiments with the command python timeprograms.py.

The figures can be generated with python makefigs.py.
