I agree with your point of view to replace list by an
array type, for the syntax [...] in the interpretor.
We should have a structure which allows to store (and to access efficiently) a sequence of data (of the same type) as returned by some algorithms (example: sequence of roots of a polynomial).
It has not necessarely the properties of vectors (ie with +, -, . operators).
Thus we should be able to have both arrays and vectors.
- arrays provided by basix with the semantic of sequences,
- vectors provided by algebr*ix with the semantic of elements of a vector space. Conversion from arrays to vectors should be available
naturally/automatically if the value type is a ring type.
Ok for me.
