/**
 Base class from which all concrete algorithm classes should be derived.
 In order for a concrete algorithm class to do anything
 useful the methods init() & exec()  should be overridden.

 Further text from Gaudi file.......
 The base class provides utility methods for accessing
 standard services (event data service etc.); for declaring
 properties which may be configured by the job options
 service; and for creating Child Algorithms.
 The only base class functionality which may be used in the
 constructor of a concrete algorithm is the declaration of
 member variables as properties. All other functionality,
 i.e. the use of services and the creation of Child Algorithms,
 may be used only in initialise() and afterwards (see the
 Gaudi user guide).
