I'm not at all familiar with the math involved, but I imagine that the capabilities could be extended for n-dimensionality if the template types were vectors.
So, how is a cross product defined and computed in 2D or 4D? :-)
A quick Google gives the following links for some inspiration: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CrossProduct.html http://www.jtaylor1142001.net/calcjat/Solutions/VCrossProduct/VCPDet2D.htm http://steve.hollasch.net/thesis/chapter2.html http://www.mathpages.com/home/kmath069.htm (see "Generalizations to Higher Dimensions"). Mathematics isn't my area of competence (a hopeful phrase implying that I may actually have one), so I'll leave it to minds more familiar with such things to determine what should be implemented.
