Description
The `FiniteDimVectorField` should be implemented for the `f32` and `f64` type.
A motivating example is the representation of an Initial Value Problem.
```rust
extern crate alga;
use alga::general::RealField;
use alga::linear::FiniteDimVectorSpace;
pub struct IVPProblem<'a, T, S>
where
T : RealField,
S : FiniteDimVectorSpace
{
initial_state : S,
tspan: (T,T),
func : &'a dyn Fn(&T, &S) -> S,
}
```
If we would now want to implement the exponential equation given by `dy/dt=dy` you could try to implement it as
``` rust
fn main() {
let ivp_problem = IVPProblem {
initial_state : 1.0,
tspan : (0.0, 1.0),
func : &(|_, &y| y)
};
/// More code here
}
```
This would not compile because our initial_state is an `f64`-type and the trait `FiniteDimVectorSpace` is not implemented.
