(Hidden to avoid implicit creation/calling). These methods are not implemented and we do not want the compiler to implement them for us, so we declare them private and do not define them. This ensures that they will not be implicitly created/called.

## Detailed Description

VectorSpace base class, corresponding to the Vector base class.

For each Vector implementation, a corresponding VectorSpace has to be implemented. A VectorSpace is able to create new Vectors of a specific type. The VectorSpace should also store information that is common to all Vectors of that type. For example, the dimension of a Vector is stored in the VectorSpace base class.
