type T i = Map i Int

A Unit.T is a sparse vector with integer entries Each map n->m means that the unit of the n-th dimension is given m times.

Example: Let the quantity of length (meter, m) be the zeroth dimension and let the quantity of time (second, s) be the first dimension, then the composed unit m_s² corresponds to the Map [(0,1),(1,-2)]

In future I want to have more abstraction here, e.g. a type class from the Edison project that abstracts from the underlying implementation. Then one can easily switch between Arrays, Binary trees (like Map) and what know I.

scalar :: T i
The neutral Unit.T
isScalar :: T i -> Bool
Test for the neutral Unit.T
fromVector :: (Enum i, Ord i) => [Int] -> T i
Convert a List to sparse Map representation Example: [-1,0,-2] -> [(0,-1),(2,-2)]
toVector :: (Enum i, Ord i) => T i -> [Int]
Convert Map to a List
ratScale :: T Int -> T i -> T i
ratScaleMaybe :: T Int -> T i -> Maybe (T i)
ratScaleMaybe2 :: T Int -> T i -> Map i (Maybe Int)
