+/*
+ * By including this header file you will be able to supplement the default
+ * Compute Kernel Writer API with additional syntax to help ease the use of CKW.
+ *
+ * To use the KernelWriterHelper you need to wrap your instance of KernelWriter
+ * (or any class deriving from KernelWriter):
+ *      KernelWriterHelper<KernelWriter> writer;
+ * The resulting writer object comprises the original KernelWriter
+ * functionality (drop-in replacement), but extends the syntax as follows.
+ *
+ * Common functions/operators have natural syntax:
+ *  1. Unary expressions:
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, !src);        // Logical NOT
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, ~src);        // Bitwise NOT
+ *
+ *  2. Binary expressions:
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs + rhs);   // Addition
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs - rhs);   // Subtraction
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs * rhs);   // Multiplication
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs / rhs);   // Division
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs % rhs);   // Modulo
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs == rhs);  // Equality
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs < rhs);   // Less-than
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs <= rhs);  // Less-than-or-equal
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs > rhs);   // Greater-than
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs >= rhs);  // Greater-than-or-equal
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, lhs ^ rhs);   // Bitwise XOR
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, logical_and(lhs, rhs));  // Logical AND
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, logical_or(lhs, rhs));   // Logical OR
+ *
+ *  3. Unary elementwise functions:
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, exp(src));    // Exponent
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, tanh(src));   // Hyperbolic tangent
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, sqrt(src));   // Square root
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, erf(src));    // Error function
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, fabs(src));   // Absolute of floating-point number
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, log(src));    // Natural logarithm
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, round(src));  // Round
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, sizeOf(src)); // sizeof
+ *
+ *  4. Binary elementwise functions:
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, max(first, second));      // Max
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, min(first, second));      // Min
+ *
+ *  5. Ternary elementwise functions:
+ *          writer.op_assign(dst, select(first, second, third));    // Select
+ *
+ * NOTE: All the above examples support nesting, so you could write
+ * something like: writer.op_assign(dst, src * (log(arg) + sqrt(abs(arg)));
+ *
+ *
+ *  6. If-statements. The preceding syntax also allows easier writing of if-statements:
+ *          writer.op_if(<cond>, <body>);
+ *
+ *     For example:
+ *          writer.op_if(exp(first_arg) == dst, [&]{
+ *              //...
+ *          }).op_else_if(exp(first_arg) > dst, [&]{
+ *              //...
+ *          }).op_else([&] {
+ *              //...
+ *          });
+ *
+ *  7. For-loops. A similar syntax exists for for-loops:
+ *          writer.op_for_loop(<cond>, <updater>, <body>);
+ *
+ *     For example:
+ *          writer.op_for_loop(index < limit, index += step, [&]{
+ *              //...
+ *          });
+ *
+ * NOTE: There are limitations on the for-loop <cond> and <updater> parameters.
+ * In neither the <cond> (Binary expression) or <updater> (Increment/Decrement)
+ * is it allowed to use nesting. For example, `(index + other) < limit` and
+ * `index < round(limit)` are invalid <cond> parameters. This is because the
+ * semantics of for-loops rely on the condition being evaluated at every iteration,
+ * but as temporary variables might be defined for nested expressions the semantics
+ * cannot be guaranteed.
