Syntax
NewVector(N:INT):VECTOR
NewVector(N:INT, E:OBJECT):VECTOR

where E is cast-able to POLY.

Description
***** NOT YET IMPLEMENTED *****

The second function returns a vector of length N, each of whose components is E. The first function, in which E is not indicated, returns a vector of length N filled with zeros.

Example
  Use R ::= QQ[x,y];
  NewVector(4);
Vector(0, 0, 0, 0)
-------------------------------
  NewVector(3, x^2+y);
Vector(x^2 + y, x^2 + y, x^2 + y)
-------------------------------
