Replace Vertex with ScalarField <: TensorField generalization
Opened this issue · 2 comments
Looking around github I found that your implementation of the Vertex struct is a special case of my new more general TensorField type, which has a specialized alias called ScalarField mapping "position" vectors into scalars.

My intention is to organize the general methods common to universal the TensorField type, which has many specializations.
The TensorFields package itself is meant to provide the foundation and universal common methods, especially for plotting. This way, other packages can simply extend and build on TensorFields without having to worry about the basic fundamentals.
Your package here looks like it could become an application of my new universal TensorField type. Instead of using your Vertex definition, you could build on a TensorField in general instead (or just focus on methods for a ScalarField).
That's an interesting idea. What exactly would be the use case?
I don't know, it's only a suggestion based on fundamental mathematical principles
