Abstract

This SRFI proposes a comprehensive and complete library of vector operations accompanied by a freely available and complete reference implementation. The reference implementation is unencumbered by copyright, and useable with no modifications on any Scheme system that is R5RS-compliant. It also provides several hooks for implementation-specific optimization as well.

Because this SRFI is more of a library or module specification than a request for additions to readers or any other internal implementation detail, in an implementation that supports a module or structure or package or library or unit (et cetera) systems, these procedures should be contained in a module / structure / package / library / unit called vector-lib.
