In our program, we will compare every two vectors. In current
implementation, we compare every element of that vector until we get
the
comparison result. It is not any more efficient way to do this?

b.t.w the length of vector is variable.

Comparing two vectors for what, equality?

Yes, but more than this. We have to compare two vectors to see if they
are equal or one is bigger or smaller than the other one.

What does it mean for a vector to be bigger or smaller than another one?

Is (0 1 1) bigger or smaller than (2 0 0)?
