A reusable implementation of the Simulated Annealing metaheuristic for optimization problems

Installation:

1. Run build.bat (creates dist/ folder if absent)
2. Change to dist/ and unpack compressed distribution
3. Change to unpacked distribution folder
4. run: setup.py install

This will install the simaneal package to Libs/site-packages
