Description: Implements the RecMap MP2 construction heuristic
  <doi:10.1109/INFVIS.2004.57>.
  This algorithm draws maps according to a given statistical
  value, e.g., election results, population, or epidemiological data.
  The basic idea of the RecMap algorithm is that each map region,
  e.g., different countries, is represented by a rectangle.
  The area of each rectangle represents the statistical value given
  as input (maintain zero cartographic error).
  C++ is used to implement the computationally intensive tasks.
  The vignette included in this package provides documentation
  about the usage of the recmap algorithm.
