int divide_vector_by_scalar
(
	Vector **target_vpp,
	const Vector *source_vp,
	double scalar
);

DESCRIPTION

This routine divides the vector in "source_vp" by the scalar in "scalar", and puts the result in the vector pointed to by "target_vpp". That vector is created or resized as necessary. More specifically, the first argument is the adress of the target vector. If the target vector itself is null, then a vector of the appropriate size is created. If the target vector is the wrong size, it is resized. Finally, if it is the right size, then the storage is recycled, as is.

RETURNS

NO_ERROR on success, and ERROR on failure with the error message being set. The routine will fail if the scalar is too close to zero, or if there is a problem allocating memory.
