Will M. Farr 3d016150a3 Updates to for/vector, for/flvector forms and documentation.
- Now the faster forms take a #:length keyword to designate the length
  of the vector to pre-allocate.

- The for/[fl]vector forms take multiple body expressions and set the
  vector component to the value of the last one.

- When given a #:length argument, the for/vector and for/flvector
  forms check that the iteration is not exceeding the given length,
  raising exn:fail if it does.

- Test cases for the multiple body expressions and the exception for
  excessive iterations have been added.

- Doc modifications to bring the docs in line with the new forms.

- Doc modifications to note that the #:length versions of the form
*may* all the computation to be performed more efficiently, and
stating that it "is an error" if the given length-expr does not
produce a valid length for a vector that matches the number of
iterations for the loop.

- Note that no test is made for a number of loop iterations that is
  smaller than the given vector length.  Also, the for*/[fl]vector
  forms do not optimize when given a #:length argument.  These are
  areas for future improvement.

The Racket programming language
===============================

Important executables:

* DrRacket: Racket's integrated development environment (start here!).

* Racket: the main command-line entry point for running racket programs
  and scripts.

* GRacket: the GUI-enabled Racket executable.

* raco: Racket's command-line toolset.


More Information
----------------

Racket comes with extensive documentation: use DrRacket's `Help' menu,
or run `raco docs'.  Also, visit us at http://racket-lang.org/ for more
Racket resources.

Instructions for building Racket from source are in src/README.
