> comparing artificial to real neural networks

I had a sad day in college when I thought I'd build my own ANN using C++.

First thing I did was create a "Neuron" class, to mimic the idea of a human neuron.

Second thing I did was realize that ANNs are actually just Weiner filters with a sigmoid on top. The base unit is not a "neuron".
