This program displays the contour plot of an mxn (m ~= n) matrix, and then calculates the area for regions above a given level. This is a brute force implementation. It probably has some bugs, and there are probably more elegant ways to do this, but it does what I need. I am open to feedback on how to improve the code.

The prompt asking the user for the contour level now displays the range of values in the input data, ie. "Enter a contour level between A and B:", where A is the minimum and B is the maximum value of the input mxn input matrix.
