FLOCK 2.0 (FlowCAP-I version)

This is the version in current ImmPort.
Other files are not changed and can be found in the folder "FLOCK_version_1"

Note: FCS files need to be converted to .txt of channel values before using the code

changes made from Version 1.0 include:
1. Added four advanced modes of different inputs
2. Added a hierarchical merging step based on density change between centroids of two hyper-regions
3. Picked the 3 most different dimensions between the population centroids to judge whether the two parts should be merged to avoid curse of dimensionality
4. Removed checking time parameter
5. Output error to stderr
6. Fixed the bug of density threshold always = 3
7. Added another error (select_num_bin<min_grid) || (select_num_bin>max_grid) to STDERR
8. Fixed a bug for 2D data by using K=e*K
9. Added some header files, may not be necessary
10. Added a lower bound (at least two) for number of populations
