-- This module defines the unboxed memo functions. The memoization creates such 'Dynamics'
-- computations, which values are cached in the integration time points. Then
-- these values are interpolated in all other time points.

  -- | Memoize and order the computation in the integration time points using 
  -- the interpolation that knows of the Runge-Kutta method. The values are
  -- calculated sequentially starting from 'starttime'.

  -- | Memoize and order the computation in the integration time points using 
  -- the 'discreteDynamics' interpolation. It consumes less memory than the 'memoDynamics'
  -- function but it is not aware of the Runge-Kutta method. There is a subtle
  -- difference when we request for values in the intermediate time points
  -- that are used by this method to integrate. In general case you should 
  -- prefer the 'memo0Dynamics' function above 'memoDynamics'.
