Actually I'm beginning to get confused about use of a left_of function actually
means anyway. I'm assuming that e.g left_of is defined as taking any arbitrary
point on the line and sweeping another line (say)anti-clockwise round that point
180 degrees. If you hit the point the point is on the left side of the line,
else on the right? But I'm not sure what the cross function is. AFAIK a
cross_product only applies in 3D?

The problem is that addition is not defined for points. (it can be defined
but then there would be no material difference between points and vectors.)
However addition is necessary for points. (Apparently it is doable using
"grassmann points" but I cant find what that means in practise). So to an
example where the issue arises...
As I understand it you downloaded my geometry library. There is a bezier curve
in <boost/geometry/three_d/bezier4.hpp>. For reasons I cant quite fathom I have
left a lot of extraneous matter in bezier4, so I have attached to this post an
modified version of bezier4.hpp as bezier4a.hpp (I've also attached an updated
version of <boost/geometry/three_d/vect.hpp> which I hope allows the example to
compile with gcc FWIW. That refers to another issue which I'll bring up later).
Anyway in bezier4a.hpp. The crucial function is the bezier4a.at(pos), where pos
is a float. bezier4a.at(n) returns the position of the relevent point on the
curve. I cant remember exactly about the origin of the function, but it is some
sort of polynomial and polynomials are frequently used in calculating splines
such as beziers and NURBS, so they are quite frequent. Anyway point addition is
quite prominent in the calculation. (FWIW I also attached test.cpp which can be
used to test the bezier functionality. If you dont have my pqs lib then comment
out the reference to boost pqs and use the Float version instead).
Alternatively it would be interesting to see how you would implement the
function without point addition.. (I guess one way would be to reimplement it in
terms of subtraction but that would seem to me to involve a lot of
hoop-jumping).

Basically just wrap T in some array type whose operator Op then build the
expression template in an expression. But as you say later is it worth it ?

Right. After I wrote that I remembered that due to a longstanding implementation
issue, gcc wont handle TYPEOF in return types. The attached vect.hpp shows the
workaround, which is basically to do as you are currently doing anyway. I guess
you could replace promotion_traits with Boost_typeof. Actually its a trivial
point ... sorry.

I figured that ET needs large matrices to offer any gain too :-)

I wouldnt know where to start I'm afraid. I recently chucked reams of x86
architecture information away and decided to leave it to the experts ;-)

No comment on your next section. It seems like these are big and difficult
issues which I dont think I can say anything useful about without a lot more
thought or detailed explanation.

I guess it might help to go into some more detail about the above with some
useage examples etc.

Yes and homogeneous matrices maybe.
I have a feeling that they

If they were limited to arithmetic then they are just structurally vectors of
Dimension +1 per dimension AFAIK. Converting between homogenous and
non-homogenous might be common though I think.

So do I. My feeling is just try boost:quaternion and see if it can be made to
work. Then see if Hubert Holin is interested in modifying it. I cant see why he
would object, as basically AFAIK this is quaternions starring role. The main
problem is if it needs major interface changes. But at that point a decision can
be made whether the original can/will be used/modified or not.

I assume the containers themselves are the standard ones...arrays, lists,vectors
etc? It might need some examples to clarify what you mean....

Ok... BTW (trivia) One issue I have is with C++ integer division . 1/2
(should go to) -->
0.5.
Another operator could have been used to represent integer-truncate division e.g
1 div 2 --> 0
Anyway I'd say this is a detail...

An alternative is to make use of Boost.Numeric.Converter to downcast
http://www.boost.org/libs/numeric/conversion/doc/index.html
It can also use round to nearest rather than truncation in converting float to
int. Its used in my pqs library. Throws an exception if the input is out of
range too.

But only if there are benefits which, because of the small dimensionality of the
matrices, seems dubious.
