// <synopsis>
// A <src>Function1D</src> is used for classes which map a
// scalar or n-dimensional Vector of type <src>T</src> into a <src>T</src>.
// The object also has one parameter which can be masked
// if necessary, and be used in the <src>Fitting</src> module, and, implicitly,
// in the <linkto class=AutoDiff>AutoDiff</linkto> differentiation module.
//
// The only method implemented in <src>Function1D</src> is the
// <src>ndim()</src> method. The rest is inhereted from
// <linkto class="Function">Function</linkto>.
// </synopsis>

// <example>
// See <linkto class=Function>Function</linkto>.
// </example>
//
// <templating arg=T>
//    <li> Besides the requirements set by the
//    <linkto class="Functional">Functional</linkto> base class, it must be
//    possible to form a <src>Vector<T></src>.
// </templating>
