    This is an example showing how to use sparse feature vectors with
    the dlib C++ library's machine learning tools.

    This example creates a simple binary classification problem and shows
    you how to train a support vector machine on that data.

    The data used in this example will be 100 dimensional data and will
    come from a simple linearly separable distribution.

    // can use the std::map to represent sparse vectors.  (Note that you don't have to use std::map.
