/**
* Show how to train a network that performs sums between
* two real numbers. The training XML is built from scratch, then saved to a file, then
* the network is initialized using that XML file, trained, and the resulting trained
* network is saved to adder.net. Then, you should take a look at doAdd.cpp to see how
* to use that file to use the network.
