+ * \ingroup subsampling
+ * \brief Subsample by a greedy strategy of iteratively adding the farthest point from the
+ * current chosen point set to the subsampling.
+ * The iteration starts with the landmark `starting point` or, if `starting point==random_starting_point`, with a random landmark.
+ * \tparam Kernel must provide a type Kernel::Squared_distance_d which is a model of the
+ * concept <a target="_blank"
+ * href="http://doc.cgal.org/latest/Kernel_d/classKernel__d_1_1Squared__distance__d.html">Kernel_d::Squared_distance_d</a> (despite the name, taken from CGAL, this can be any kind of metric or proximity measure).
+ * It must also contain a public member `squared_distance_d_object()` that returns an object of this type.
+ * \tparam Point_range Range whose value type is Kernel::Point_d. It must provide random-access
+ * via `operator[]` and the points should be stored contiguously in memory.
+ * \tparam PointOutputIterator Output iterator whose value type is Kernel::Point_d.
+ * \tparam DistanceOutputIterator Output iterator for distances.
+ * \details It chooses `final_size` points from a random access range
+ * `input_pts` and outputs them in the output iterator `output_it`. It also
+ * outputs the distance from each of those points to the set of previous
+ * points in `dist_it`.
+ * @param[in] k A kernel object.
+ * @param[in] input_pts Const reference to the input points.
+ * @param[in] final_size The size of the subsample to compute.
+ * @param[in] starting_point The seed in the farthest point algorithm.
+ * @param[out] output_it The output iterator for points.
+ * @param[out] dist_it The optional output iterator for distances.
