I'd probably also include multiplication of one matrix by another, which is an equally straightforward operation.
fully agreed, I was thinking about it, but didn't wrote this. This qualifies to be put into wiki with specifications of this library.
</lurk> Allow me to ask a stupid question. Doesn't Boost already have a large, working, nifty, linear algebra (or at least vectors-and-matrices) package in UBLAS? It seems to me that building operations for vectors-with-units and matrices-with-units is a duplication of effort. If the PQS library is as easy to use as [ it should be | we think it is ] then incorporating units into UBLAS should be both easy and a good exercise. Personally I think we're seeing some scope-creep here. If we come up with a good, general, units/dimensions library, than things like vectors-with-units should be things people do _with_ the library, not things people do _to_ the library, right? <lurk> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Steffen, Ph.D. Fools ignore complexity.
