In this scenario then, the call would be...
// Instantiate vectors
vector<double> v1,v2;
vector<bool> v3, v4;
// Create an instance of the lt_functor
// lt_functor(v1,v2,r1,r2) implements v[i] = v1[i] < v2[i] ? r1 : r2
lt_functor<vector<double>, vector<double>, vector<bool> > myfunctor;
// Setup the functor arguments
// These could setup in the functor constructor, but just want to show
// a more general implementation
functor.set( true, false );
// Perform elementwise operation on vectors
v3 = binary_vector_elementwise( v1, v2, myfunctor );
// Change functor setup
functor.set( false, true );
// Perform elementwise operation on vectors
v4 = binary_vector_elementwise( v1, v2, myfunctor );
Presumably we could have a family of such free functions:
unary_vector_elementwise( v, f );
binary_vector_elementwise( v, v, f );
unary_matrix_elementwise( m, f );
binary_matrix_elementwise( m, m, f );
This may be a good solution, however, I am somewhat suspicious that I will
struggle to implement this in a timely manner. Does anyone else have a interest
in this sort of development.
