finished with flda (kinda)

i got the framework for flda working. but the resulting graphs look like noise mostly. i have sent an email to serge asking him to review my math. matlab needs to have better support for object oriented programming. everything i'm coding right now is in its own file and if i want to create classes of my own, i'd have to create a new folder for each class and add that folder to the default path. this isn't hard, but it disrupts the flow of coding. while coding fisher's linear discriminant, it would have been quite useful to create an object that held the different classifications, and each classification could hold the elements belonging to that class. currently, this is all coded up using structs and arrays.
unfortunately, serge is out of the office. in the meantime i should get nearest neighbor and k-nearest neighbor working. i can use pca to generate test results.
