First and foremost.. I propose a StdSeq.lib.. IE.. splice(Seq,Subs) -return a sequence with the specified subscripts removed. dimension_seq(Subs,Dims,Value) -initialize a sequence to the specified number of layers and subscripts with specified value. There are many more.. but I don't have time to write now.
