* Author:        Agner Fog
* Date created:  2012-05-30
* Last modified: 2022-07-20
* Version:       2.02.00
* Project:       vector class library
* Description:
* Header file defining integer vector classes as interface to intrinsic
* functions in x86 microprocessors with AVX2 and later instruction sets.
*
* Instructions: see vcl_manual.pdf
*
* The following vector classes are defined here:
* Vec256b   Vector of 256  bits. Used internally as base class
* Vec32c    Vector of  32  8-bit signed    integers
* Vec32uc   Vector of  32  8-bit unsigned  integers
* Vec32cb   Vector of  32  Booleans for use with Vec32c and Vec32uc
* Vec16s    Vector of  16  16-bit signed   integers
* Vec16us   Vector of  16  16-bit unsigned integers
* Vec16sb   Vector of  16  Booleans for use with Vec16s and Vec16us
* Vec8i     Vector of   8  32-bit signed   integers
* Vec8ui    Vector of   8  32-bit unsigned integers
* Vec8ib    Vector of   8  Booleans for use with Vec8i and Vec8ui
* Vec4q     Vector of   4  64-bit signed   integers
* Vec4uq    Vector of   4  64-bit unsigned integers
* Vec4qb    Vector of   4  Booleans for use with Vec4q and Vec4uq
*
* Each vector object is represented internally in the CPU as a 256-bit register.
* This header file defines operators and functions for these vectors.
