Defines a variety of helper classes used for creating DataSet and DataPoint objects from a variety of different input sources. In the initial implementation of this package the only input format supported is from CSV (Comma Separated Values) files. It is expected/hoped that other classes will be developed for inputting from such sources as a database (via a SQL SELECT statement), an XML data source, and others.
