+//! This module provides FastPair, a data-structure for efficiently tracking the dynamic
+//! closest pairs in a set of points, with an example usage in hierarchical clustering.[2][3][5]
+//!
+//! ## Purpose
+//!
+//! FastPair allows quick retrieval of the nearest neighbor for each data point by maintaining
+//! a "conga line" of closest pairs. Each point retains a link to its known nearest neighbor,
+//! and updates in the data structure propagate accordingly. This can be leveraged in
+//! agglomerative clustering steps, where merging or insertion of new points must be reflected
+//! in nearest-neighbor relationships.
+//!
+//! ## Example
+//!
+//! ```
+//! use smartcore::metrics::distance::PairwiseDistance;
+//! use smartcore::linalg::basic::matrix::DenseMatrix;
+//! use smartcore::algorithm::neighbour::fastpair::FastPair;
+//!
+//! let x = DenseMatrix::from_2d_array(&[
+//!     &[5.1, 3.5, 1.4, 0.2],
+//!     &[4.9, 3.0, 1.4, 0.2],
+//!     &[4.7, 3.2, 1.3, 0.2],
+//!     &[4.6, 3.1, 1.5, 0.2],
+//!     &[5.0, 3.6, 1.4, 0.2],
+//!     &[5.4, 3.9, 1.7, 0.4],
+//! ]).unwrap();
+//!
+//! let fastpair = FastPair::new(&x).unwrap();
+//! let closest = fastpair.closest_pair();
+//! println!("Closest pair: {:?}", closest);
+//! ```
