Greats.  Any hints  on how to best future proof cwise()?

Another question I couldn't immediately figure out from the docs/source.  Is the vector a (roughly)  STD compliant container?  Or any way to return a random access iterator for begin() and end() that I could use with std::transform, etc?  The "start" and "end" seem different than normal iterators

Also: is there a good reference file in the source that captures a lot of the traits I might use for metaprogramming?

At some point I will check in the the numeric bindings guys and see if they have done anything will eigen.  I will report back to this list conditional on success.

 

Thanks for such a prompt response
