1.) Implemented associated types for operators and vectors.
OperatorBasenow has two associated typesInandOutfor the scalar input and output type. Vector has an associted scalar type calledItem. The trait methods have been adapted accordingly. This gives every object a native type. We could then implement adapters on top to allow conversion between different representations.2.) I have made a proposal for a scalar trait type. It is a subset of the
Numtrait from thenumcrate. It does not require string conversion and only needs addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division. It has no remainder operation as this might not always make sense (consider the scalar type for example itself to be a dense matrix). Not sure yet if this is best but would be good to have a definition that allows arbitrary fields as scalar type.3.) I updated the
test_mult_sketchytest to succeed when the matvec panics.
