/** \class NumLimitsT NumLimitsT.hh <OpenMesh/Utils/NumLimitsT.hh
This class provides the maximum and minimum values a certain
scalar type (\cint, \c float, or \double) can store. You can
use it like this:
\code
#include <OpenMesh/Utils/NumLimitsT.hh>
int float_min = OpenMesh::NumLimitsT<float>::min();
float double_max = OpenMesh::NumLimitsT<double>::max();
\endcode
\note This functionality should be provided by
std::numeric_limits. This template does not exist on gcc <=
2.95.3. The class template NumLimitsT is just a workaround.
