Detailed Description

This module contains abstract and concrete derived types that are required for compile-time resolution of procedures within the generic interfaces of the ParaMonte library for Linear Algebra operations.
Such procedures frequently have multiple implementations determined by the specific control flow used in the algorithm.

In computer science, control flow (or flow of control) is the order in which individual statements, instructions or function calls of an imperative program are executed or evaluated.
There are several types of programming control flows including,

1. Sequence control flow refers to performing evaluations or statement executions one after another, all serially and in the specified order.
2. Selection control flow refers to performing evaluations or statement executions conditionally using if, unless, switch, case, or other similar programming constructs.
3. Iteration control flow (or looping) refers to performing evaluations or statement executions repeatedly using for, while, repeat, until, or other similar programming constructs.
4. Procedural Abstraction control flow (or subroutine call) refers to performing evaluations or statement executions by calling a sequence of procedures.
5. Recursion control flow refers to performing evaluations or statement executions repeatedly using procedure self calls until a condition is met.
6. Nondeterminacy control flow refers to performing evaluations or statement executions randomly from a set of predefined possible flows in the code.
7. Concurrency control flow refers to performing evaluations or statement executions concurrently with any dependence of the individual tasks on each other.

This module contains an incomplete list of derived types that help resolve the various implementations of the same algorithms using different control flows at compile time.
