// </prerequisite>
//
// <synopsis>
// Given a string describing an expression
// (see <linkto class=FuncExpression>FuncExpression</linkto> class for
// details of the expression), the <src>CompiledFunction</src>class wraps
// this expression as a 
// Function (see <linkto class=Function>Function</linkto> class) which can
// be used in all places where functions can be used (e.g. see
// <linkto module=Fitting>Fitting</linkto>).
//
// This class takes care of the
// <linkto class=CompiledFunction>CompiledFunction</linkto> parameter interface
// (see <linkto class=FunctionParam>FunctionParam</linkto> class for details).
// </synopsis>
//
// <example>
// In the following example a Gaussian profile with three parameters
// (height, center and halfwidth) is specified and its value and
// derivatives with respect to the parameters are calculated at <src>x=2</src>.
// <srcblock>
// // the Gaussian
// CompiledFunction<Double> prof("p0*exp(-((x-p1)/p2)^2)");
// prof[0] = 2;				// the height
// prof[1] = 1.5;			// the center
// prof[2] = 1;				// the width
// Vector<Double> x(3);
// X[0] = 1.9; x[1] = 2.0; x[2] = 2.1;
// cout << "Gaussian at x=" << x << ": " << prof(x) << endl;
// // and an automatic derivative one:
// CompiledFunction<AutoDiff<Double> > profad("p0*exp(-((x-p1)/p2)^2)");
// cout << "Gaussian at x=" << x << ": " << profad(x) << endl;
// </srcblock>
// will produce the output:
// <srcblock>
// </srcblock>
// </example>

// <templating arg=T>
//  <li> T should have standard numerical operators and functions.
//  <li> To obtain derivatives, the derivatives should be defined.
// </templating>

// <thrown>
// </thrown>

// <motivation>
// This class was created to allow specialization of the function evaluation in
// a simple way.
// </motivation>

// <li> Nothing I know of
