BNW using Octave instead of Matlab.

This version of BNW should perform the same as the original version. The only difference is that it uses Octave instead of Matlab when running BayesNet Toolbox during parameter learning.

I am calling this BNW_1.02. It can be accessed at:
compbio.uthsc.edu/BNW_1.02

+4. Relevant Information:
+   This dataset is a subset of the 1987 National Indonesia Contraceptive
+   Prevalence Survey. The samples are married women who were either not 
+   pregnant or do not know if they were at the time of interview. The 
+   problem is to predict the current contraceptive method choice 
+   (no use, long-term methods, or short-term methods) of a woman based 
+   on her demographic and socio-economic characteristics.
