𝓞(n³) implementation of the Hungarian algorithm,
also known as the Hungarian method, Kuhn–Munkres
algorithm or Munkres assignment.
+
+The Hungarian algorithm solved the minmum bipartite
+match problem in 𝓞(n⁴). By implementing the priority
+queue with a van Emde Boas tree the time can be
+reduced to 𝓞(n³ log log n). The van Emde Boas tree
+is possible to use because the elements values are
+bounded within the priority queue's capacity.
+However this implemention achived 𝓞(n³) by not using
+a priority queue.
