+MultiResolutionAnalysis
+------------------
+
+The MultiResolutionAnalysis (MRA) class contains the methods to project objects onto the spatial grid.
+That is, to combine different functions and operators in mathematical operations, they need to be compatible; 
+they must be defined on the same computational domain and constructed using the same polynomial basis 
+(order and type). This information constitutes an MRA, which needs to be defined and passed as argument to 
+all function and operator constructors, and only functions and operators with compatible MRAs can be 
+combined in subsequent calculations.

+ *  node refinement is beyond the root scale or the maximum depth allowed, in which case it will abort the process.
