    //  unary class.
    //
    //      Composite class composed of a single subject. This template class
    //      is parameterized by the subject type S and a base class to
    //      inherit from, BaseT. The unary class is meant to be a base class
    //      to inherit from. The inheritance structure, given the BaseT
    //      template parameter places the unary class in the middle of a
    //      linear, single parent hierarchy. For instance, given a class S
    //      and a base class B, a class D can derive from unary:
    //
    //          struct D : public unary<S, B> {...};
    //
    //      The inheritance structure is thus:
    //
    //            B
    //            |
    //          unary (has S)
    //            |
    //            D
    //
    //      The subject can be accessed from the derived class D as:
    //      this->subject();
    //
    //      Typically, the subject S is specified as typename S::embed_t.
    //      embed_t specifies how the subject is embedded in the composite
    //      (See parser.hpp for details).

    //      types A and B and a base class to inherit from, BaseT. The binary
    //      class is meant to be a base class to inherit from. The
    //      inheritance structure, given the BaseT template parameter places
    //      the binary class in the middle of a linear, single parent
    //      hierarchy. For instance, given classes X and Y and a base class
