<pre id="namespace-docstr">Generic arithmetic interface
This library defines generic versions of + - * / as multimethods
that can be defined for any type. The minimal required 
implementations for a type are binary + and * plus unary - and /.
Everything else is derived from these automatically. Explicit
binary definitions for - and / can be provided for
efficiency reasons.</pre>
