/*============== Template parameter type naming conventions ==============
--------- Numeric types: -------------------------------------------------
DATATYPE - data sample values - usually real numbers (but may be integers
          in text processing etc.)
REALTYPE - must be real numbers - for representing intermediate results of 
          calculations like mean, covariance etc.
IDXTYPE - index values for enumeration of data samples - (nonnegative) integers, 
          extent depends on numbers of samples in data
DIMTYPE - index values for enumeration of features (dimensions), or classes (not 
          class sizes) - (nonnegative) integers, usually lower extent than IDXTYPE, 
          but be aware of expressions like _classes*_features*_features ! 
          in linearized representations of feature matrices for all classes
BINTYPE - feature selection marker type - represents ca. <10 different feature 
          states (selected, deselected, sel./desel. temporarily 1st nested loop, 2nd...)
RETURNTYPE - criterion value: real value, but may be extended in future to support 
          multiple values 
--------- Class types: ---------------------------------------------------
SUBSET       - class of class type Subset 
CLASSIFIER   - class implementing interface defined in abstract class Classifier 
EVALUATOR    - class implementing interface defined in abstract class Sequential_Step 
DISTANCE     - class implementing interface defined in abstract class Distance 
DATAACCESSOR - class implementing interface defined in abstract class Data_Accessor 
INTERVALCONTAINER - class of class type Data_Intervaller 
CONTAINER    - STL container of class type Data_Interval
