  \brief Vector Class (Templated)
  \author Tony Ottosson, Tobias Ringstrom, Adam Piatyszek and Conrad Sanderson

  Vectors can be of arbitrary types, but conversions and functions are
  prepared for \c bin, \c short, \c int, \c double, and \c complex<double>
  vectors and these are predefined as: \c bvec, \c svec, \c ivec, \c vec,
  and \c cvec. \c double and \c complex<double> are \c double and
  \c complex<double> respectively.

  Examples:

  Vector Constructors:
  When constructing a vector without a length (memory) use
  \code vec temp; \endcode
  For construction of a vector of a given length use
  \code vec temp(length); \endcode
  It is also possible to assign the constructed vector the value and size
  of another vector by
  \code vec temp(invector); \endcode
  If you have explicit values you would like to assign to the vector it is
  possible to do this using strings as:
  \code
  vec a("0 0.7 5 9.3"); // that is a = [0, 0.7, 5, 9.3]
  vec a="0 0.7 5 9.3";  // the constructor is called implicitly
  ivec b="0:5";  // that is, b = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
  vec c="3:2.5:13";  // that is, c = [3, 5.5, 8, 10.5, 13]
  \endcode
  It is also possible to change length by
  \code temp.set_size(new_length, false); \endcode
  where \c false is used to indicate that the old values in \c temp
  are not copied. If you would like to preserve the values, use \c true.

  There are a number of methods to access parts of a vector. Examples are
  \code
  a(5);     // Element number 5
  a(5,9);  // Elements 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9
  a.left(10);  // The 10 leftmost elements (the first)
  a.right(10); // The 10 rightmost elements (the last)
  a.mid(5, 7); // 7 elements starting from element 5
  \endcode

  It is also possible to modify parts of a vector, as in e.g.
  \code
  a.del(5);    // deletes element number 5
  a.ins(3.4, 9); // inserts the element 3.4 at position 9
  a.set_subvector(12, b); // replaces elements from 12 with the vector b
  \endcode

  It is, of course, also possible to perform common linear algebra
  operations, such as addition, subtraction, and scalar product (*). Observe
  though, that vectors are assumed to be column-vectors in operations with
  matrices.

  Most elementary functions such as sin(), cosh(), log(), abs(), ..., are
  also available as operations on the individual elements of the vectors. Please
  see the individual functions for more details.

  By default, the Vec elements are created using the default constructor for
  the element type. This can be changed by specifying a suitable Factory in
  the Vec constructor call; see Detailed Description for Factory.
