+There are a few new elements that we added to our code this week. We added a new class called 'KMeans'. Inside this class will be the guts of our classifier. To be able to successfully classify a new point (a sound), the classifier actually only needs to know the <code>centroid of each class</code> and a way to <code>find the closest centroid</code> to our new point.
-* it needs to know all given points (i.e. the measurements of sounds we want to compare out new sound to)
-* for every point it needs to know to which point cloud (=class) it belongs
