/** 
 *  \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.
 *
