function J = compute_cost(X, y, theta)
%COMPUTE_COST Compute cost for linear regression. Takes as input
%matrix X of training examples, a parameter vector, theta, and an
%output vector y
J = 0.0; %cost
m = size(y, 1); %number of training examples
for i = 1:m
hypothesis = calculate_hypothesis(X, theta, i);
output = y(i);
squared_error = (hypothesis - output) ^ 2;
J = J + squared_error;
end
J = J * (1.0 / (2 * m));
