Expanding on this a bit ... there doesn't seem to a sub-/super-domain
relationship between matrix and vector. Why not make them both (together
with covector) sub-domains of some abstract nt2_domain, which has all
the logic for deciding which sub-domain a particular expression should
be in based on its structure? Its generator could actually be a Proto
algorithm, like:
nt2_generator
: proto::or_<
proto::when<
vector_grammar
, proto::generator<vector_expr>(_)>
proto::when<
covector_grammar
, proto::generator<covector_expr>(_)>
proto::otherwise<
proto::generator<matrix_expr>(_)>
>
{};
struct nt2_domain
: proto::domain<nt2_generator>
{};
Etc...
