I have implemented a generic nD vector struct for D1. When I have translated it
to D2 I can show it and Andrei may add it to Phobos, because everyone and their
uncle need vectors.

There are several ways to implement a generic nD vector, the size is a template
argument, and templates or CTFT + string mixin allow you to perform the
operations with no loops in the final code.

The following are a few libraries that have already implemented vector 
classes/structs for Vec2 .. Vec4, they might give you some ideas should 
you decide to roll your own :)
