Description: Implements the SparseStep model for solving regression
    problems with a sparsity constraint on the parameters. The SparseStep 
    regression model was proposed in Van den Burg, Groenen, and Alfons (2017) 
    <https://arxiv.org/abs/1701.06967>. In the model, a regularization term is 
    added to the regression problem which approximates the counting norm of 
    the parameters.  By iteratively improving the approximation a sparse 
    solution to the regression problem can be obtained.  In this package both 
    the standard SparseStep algorithm is implemented as well as a path 
    algorithm which uses golden section search to determine solutions with 
    different values for the regularization parameter.
