Ok I've done some digging in the header files and the find() member 
function seems to do the job. The sparse vectors look very useful. It 
does seem a shame the whole API isn't documented and also that the 
semantics of some of the methods differ from those of the standard 
library containers, e.g. clear() fills a sparse vector with zeros.
