function [ a, more ] = vec_lex_next ( dim_num, base, a, more )

%*****************************************************************************80
%
%% VEC_LEX_NEXT generates vectors in lex order.
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    The vectors are produced in lexical order, starting with
%    (0,0,...,0),
%    (0,0,...,1),
%    ...
%    (BASE-1,BASE-1,...,BASE-1).
%
%  Example:
%
%    DIM_NUM = 2,
%    BASE = 3
%
%    0   0
%    0   1
%    0   2
%    1   0
%    1   1
%    1   2
%    2   0
%    2   1
%    2   2

%
%  Parameters:
%
%    Input, integer DIM_NUM, the size of the vectors to be used.
%
%    Input, integer BASE, the base to be used.  BASE = 2 will
%    give vectors of 0's and 1's, for instance.
%
%    Input, integer A(DIM_NUM), except on the first call, this should
%    be the output value of A on the last call.
%
%    Input, logical MORE, should be FALSE on the first call, and
%    thereafter should be the output value of MORE from the previous call.  
%
%    Output, integer A(DIM_NUM), the next vector.
%
%    Output, logical MORE, is TRUE if another vector was computed.
%    If MORE is FALSE on return, then ignore the output value A, and
%    stop calling the routine.
