Extend to n dimensions #4

Open DestyNova opened 4 years ago

DestyNova commented 4 years ago

The code written in Nim is suspiciously short on meta-level abstractions. Perhaps this could be expanded to the fourth (and higher) dimensions using Nim's generics and/or macro facilities?

It may be difficult to visualise those dimensions, but perhaps some sort of artificial gravity well could be used to affect the flow of time.

n dimensions will definitely help my workflow. I look forward to it being implemented.

Please make sure that there is a plug-in to map N to M dimensions (where M <<= M) using VQ or other dimensional reduction techniques -- my brain hurts after about 6.3 dimensions and I have an old GPU. Speaking of which, is support for fractional dimensions (both real and imaginary) in the roadmap?

+1 I need this too this is blocking our release
