/**@brief   Sparse vector set.
 * @ingroup Algebra
 *
 *   Class SVSetBase provides a set of sparse vectors SVectorBase. All SVectorBase%s in an SVSetBase share one big
 *   memory block for their nonzeros. This memory is referred to as the \em nonzero \em memory. The SVectorBase%s
 *   themselves are saved in another memory block referred to as the \em vector \em memory. Both memory blocks will grow
 *   automatically if required, when adding more SVectorBase%s to the set or enlarging SVectorBase%s within the set. For
 *   controlling memory consumption, methods are provided to inquire and reset the size of the memory blocks used for
 *   vectors and nonzeros.
 *
 *   SVectorBase%s in an SVSetBase are numbered from 0 thru num()-1. They can be accessed using the index
 *   operator[](). When removing SVectorBase%s of a SVSetBase the remaining ones will be renumbered. However, all
 *   SVectorBase with a smaller number than the lowest number of the removed SVectorBase%s will remain unchanged.
 *
 *   For providing a uniform access to SVectorBase%s in a %set even if others are removed or added, SVSetBase assigns a
 *   DataKey to each SVectorBase in the %set. Such a DataKey remains unchanged as long as the corresponding SVectorBase
 *   is in the SVSetBase, no matter what other SVectorBase%s are added to or removed from the SVSetBase. Methods are
 *   provided for getting the DataKey to a SVectorBase or its number and vice versa.  Further, each add() method for
 *   enlarging an SVSetBase is provided with two signatures. One of them returns the DataKey%s assigned to the
 *   SVectorBase%s added to the SVSetBase.

    *  moved to the end, the SVectorBase preceeding it obtains the space for all the nonzeros that previously belonged
    *  to the (re-)moved one.  However, the nonzeros in use are uneffected by this.
