-   %   
-   %  This function takes files that are uploaded to BNW and creates output
-   %    files that can be used for structure and parameter learning.
-   %  It replaces php code that was previously in bn_file_load_gom.php.
-   %    There are several improvements in performance and ease of use:
-   %     1) Loading files is significantly (~5x) faster for large input files.
-   %     2) The allowed values for discrete variables are more flexible. 
-   %           (e.g., A genotype variable be 'B' and 'D' instead of having
-   %               to replace to make them '1' and '2'.)
-   %     3) Continuous variables may be identified as continuous in some cases
-   %            even if there is not a period.
-   %     4) The states of discrete variables should be correctly ordered in
-   %            almost all cases.
-   %     5) An additional output file is written that will let users check if
-   %            the input file has been uploaded and parsed correctly.
-   %     6) Future updates to this code should be easier than updating the php.

-   %  Input: ???continuous_input_orig.txt
-   %    This is the input file that is uploaded to BNW.
-   %    It is directly written out by the BNW php code with no modification.
-   %    The file format is a header line containing the variable names
-   %     followed by the data, with each case in a row.
-   %
-   %  Output: There are many output files.
-   %    1) The main output file is ???continuous_input.txt that can be
-   %       used by the structure learning code and parameter learning codes.
-   %       The first line is variable names, the second line is the node type
-   %          (continuous nodes should have 1, discrete nodes have the number
-   %           of states), and the rest is the data.
-   %    2) A new output file is ???input_desc.txt, a file that describes the
-   %        data so users can check that it has been parsed correctly.
-   %    3) ???nlevels.txt: The states of discrete variables.
-   %    4) ???name.txt: The names of the variables as uploaded.

-   %   
-   %  This function takes files that are uploaded to BNW and creates output
-   %    files that can be used for structure and parameter learning.
-   %  It replaces php code that was previously in bn_file_load_gom.php.
-   %    There are several improvements in performance and ease of use:
-   %     1) Loading files is significantly (~5x) faster for large input files.
-   %     2) The allowed values for discrete variables are more flexible. 
-   %           (e.g., A genotype variable be 'B' and 'D' instead of having
-   %               to replace to make them '1' and '2'.)
-   %     3) Continuous variables may be identified as continuous in some cases
-   %            even if there is not a period.
-   %     4) The states of discrete variables should be correctly ordered in
-   %            almost all cases.
-   %     5) An additional output file is written that will let users check if
-   %            the input file has been uploaded and parsed correctly.
-   %     6) Future updates to this code should be easier than updating the php.
-   %      
-   %
-   %  Input: ???continuous_input_orig.txt
-   %    This is the input file that is uploaded to BNW.
-   %    It is directly written out by the BNW php code with no modification.
-   %    The file format is a header line containing the variable names
-   %     followed by the data, with each case in a row.
-   %
-   %  Output: There are many output files.
-   %    1) The main output file is ???continuous_input.txt that can be
-   %       used by the structure learning code and parameter learning codes.
-   %       The first line is variable names, the second line is the node type
-   %          (continuous nodes should have 1, discrete nodes have the number
-   %           of states), and the rest is the data.
-   %    2) A new output file is ???input_desc.txt, a file that describes the
-   %        data so users can check that it has been parsed correctly.
-   %    3) ???nlevels.txt: The states of discrete variables.
-   %    4) ???name.txt: The names of the variables as uploaded.
-   %    5) ???type.txt: The number of states for each variables
-   %            (1 indicates a continuous variable.)
-   %    6/7) ???nnode.txt and ???nrows.txt: number of nodes and cases
-   %    8-12) ???ban.txt, ???white.txt, ???k.txt, ???thr.txt, and
