 * $Log: metric.h,v $
 * Revision 1.9  2014/10/13 08:52:35  j_novak
 * Lorene classes and functions now belong to the namespace Lorene.
 *
 * Revision 1.8  2004/11/18 12:23:42  jl_jaramillo
 * radial vector normal to a spherical slicing and pointing towards
 * spatial infinity
 *
 * Revision 1.7  2004/03/22 13:12:42  j_novak
 * Modification of comments to use doxygen instead of doc++
 *
 * Revision 1.6  2003/12/30 23:04:58  e_gourgoulhon
 * Important reorganization of class Metric:
 *  -- suppression of virtual methods fait_* : the actual computations
 *     are now performed via the virtual methods con(), cov(), connect(),
 *     ricci(), ricci_scal(), determinant()
 *  -- the member p_connect is now treated as an ordinary derived data
 *     member
 *  -- the construction of the associated connection (member p_connect)
 *     is performed thanks to the new methods Map::flat_met_spher() and
 *     Map::flat_met_cart().
 *
 * Revision 1.5  2003/11/06 14:43:37  e_gourgoulhon
 * Gave a name to const arguments in certain method prototypes (e.g.
 * constructors) to correct a bug of DOC++.
 *
 * Revision 1.4  2003/10/06 15:30:32  j_novak
 * Defined methods for flat metric.
 *
 * Revision 1.3  2003/10/06 13:58:45  j_novak
 * The memory management has been improved.
 * Implementation of the covariant derivative with respect to the exact Tensor
 * type.
 *
 * Revision 1.2  2003/10/03 11:21:45  j_novak
 * More methods for the class Metric
 *
 * Revision 1.1  2003/10/02 15:45:48  j_novak
 * New class Metric
