Find four elements that sum to a given value | Set 1 (n^3 solution)

Description
Discussion

Given an array of integers, find all combination of four elements in the array whose sum is equal to a given value X. 
For example, if the given array is {10, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 7, 8} and X = 23, then your function should print “3 5 7 8” (3 + 5 + 7 + 8 = 23).

A Naive Solution is to generate all possible quadruples and compare the sum of every quadruple with X. The following code implements this simple method using four nested loops
