Uniform vectors

Uniform vectors are vectors whose elements are of the same numeric type. The are defined by SRFI-4. However, the type names (such as <s8vector>) are a Kawa extension.

<s8vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain a signed 8-bit integer. Represented using an array of <byte>.

<u8vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain an unsigned 8-bit integer. Represented using an array of <byte>, but each element is treated as if unsigned.

<s16vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain a signed 16-bit integer. Represented using an array of <short>.

<u16vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain an unsigned 16-bit integer. Represented using an array of <short>, but each element is treated as if unsigned.

<s32vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain a signed 32-bit integer. Represented using an array of <int>.

<u32vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain an unsigned 32-bit integer. Represented using an array of <int>, but each element is treated as if unsigned.

<s64vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain a signed 64-bit integer. Represented using an array of <long>.

<u64vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain an unsigned 64-bit integer. Represented using an array of <long>, but each element is treated as if unsigned.

<f32vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain a 32-bit floating-point real. Represented using an array of <float>.

<f64vector> Variable
The type of uniform vectors where each element can contain a 64-bit floating-point real. Represented using an array of <double>.
