/*!
    \brief Meta-function to select, of two types, the most accurate type for
        calculations
    \ingroup utility
    \details select_most_precise classes, compares two types on compile time.
    For example, if an addition must be done with a double and an integer, the
        result must be a double.
    If both types are integer, the result can be an integer.
    \note It is different from the "promote" class, already in boost. That
        class promotes e.g. a (one) float to a double. This class selects a
        type from two types. It takes the most accurate, but does not promote
        afterwards.
    \note This traits class is completely independant from GGL and might be a
        separate addition to Boost
    \note If the input is a non-fundamental type, it might be a calculation
        type such as a GMP-value or another high precision value. Therefore,
        if one is non-fundamental, that one is chosen.
    \note If both types are non-fundamental, the result is indeterminate and
        currently the first one is chosen.
