<p>
A default constructor is provided for each form, which initializes each component
to the default values for their type (i.e. zero for floating numbers). This
constructor can also accept one to eight base type arguments. A constructor
is also provided to build octonions from one to four complex numbers sharing
the same base type, and another taking one or two quaternions sharing the same
base type. The unspecialized template also sports a templarized copy constructor,
while the specialized forms have copy constructors from the other two specializations,
which are explicit when a risk of precision loss exists. For the unspecialized
form, the base type's constructors must not throw.
</p>
<p>
Destructors and untemplated copy constructors (from the same type) are provided
by the compiler. Converting copy constructors make use of a templated helper
function in a "detail" subnamespace.

<p>
Like complex number, octonions do have a meaningful notion of "real part",
but unlike them there is no meaningful notion of "imaginary part".
Instead there is an "unreal part" which itself is a octonion, and
usually nothing simpler (as opposed to the complex number case). These are
returned by the first two functions.

A octonion having eight real components, these are returned by these eight
functions. Hence real and R_component_1 return the same value.

A octonion likewise has four complex components. Actually, octonions are indeed
a (left) vector field over the complexes, but beware, as for any octonion
<span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">o = α + βi + γj + δk + εe' + ζi' + ηj' + θk'</code></em></span> we also have <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">o
= (α + βi) + (γ + δi)j + (ε + ζi)e' + (η - θi)j'</code></em></span> (note the <span class="bold"><strong>minus</strong></span> sign
in the last factor). What the C_component_n functions return, however, are
the complexes which could be used to build the octonion using the constructor,
and <span class="bold"><strong>not</strong></span> the components of the octonion on
the basis <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">(1, j, e', j')</code></em></span>.

Likewise, for any octonion <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">o = α + βi + γj + δk + εe' + ζi' + ηj' + θk'</code></em></span> we
also have <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">o = (α + βi + γj + δk) + (ε + ζi + ηj - θj)e'</code></em></span>, though there is no
meaningful vector-space-like structure based on the quaternions. What the H_component_n
functions return are the quaternions which could be used to build the octonion
using the constructor.

These perform the expected assignment, with type modification if necessary
(for instance, assigning from a base type will set the real part to that value,
and all other components to zero). For the unspecialized form, the base type's

which the specialized forms do not, so as to insure exception safety. For the
unspecialized form, the base type's assignment operators must not throw. Also,
for clarity's sake, you should always group the factors in a multiplication
by groups of two, as the multiplication is not even associative on the octonions
(though there are of course cases where this does not matter, it usually does).

unspecialized form, the base type's assignment operators must not throw. As
for the multiplication, remember to group any two factors using parenthesis.
