This is maybe too big for a task

I'm pretty sure people will say that, and maybe they're right. But maybe not. I don't think it is much more complicated than say Quaternion type, and in any case it is, from both the programming and mathematical points of view,, quite interesting and worth featuring in Rosetta Code, imho. Please feel free to argue about it.--Grondilu (talk) 22:38, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

It's not clear that we can meaningfully implement anything with infinite dimension - countable or not. At best, we can support a finite subset of such a thing.

More specifically, how would we tell whether an implementation has or has not satisfied that part of the task requirement? --Rdm (talk) 12:36, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
