Hi Eric and Patricia --

So I did run a test between the vector approach, where I used the vector
<float>.get(i) to retrieve each record versus aligning the data into an
array declared as float[], and noticed about 2x computational speed
improvement. I guess there are a number of step performing a look up with
vector has to do as opposed to simple addressing through an array.
