// Description of
//         inner_product(first,last,first2,init)
//         inner_product(first,last,first2,init,binary_op1,binary_op2):
// 
//    Computes its result by initializing the accumulator acc with init
//        acc = init
//    and then modifying it with
//        acc = acc  +  (*i1) * (*i2)
//    or
//        acc = binary_op1(acc, binary_op2(*i1, *i2))
//    for every iterator i1 in the range [first, last) and
//    iterator  i2  in  the  range [first2, first2 + (last - first))
//    in order.
