Hi @AmintorDusko , nice work! When compiling you branch, I got following errors: error: no member named 'reverse_view' in namespace 'std::ranges'. Rolling back to your previous implementation will fix the issue.

Hi @multiphaseCFD, the work is not done yet. This is a draft pull request.

Thanks @AmintorDusko for putting these together! Just one mirror comments.

I didn't get it. Could you please expand on your question?

What about "Defining a vector to be transposed." -> "Defining a tensor to be transposed." ?

Thanks Amintor. Just some questions, but not blocking the approval.
