"""Components for fee management.

Fees here are considered as a pair <PARAMS, VALUES> with both being a
nested tuple. This is a way to describe a table with nested columns
and its values.

For example let's have a look at the following table:

  +------+------------------+----------------------+
  |      | locals           | non-locals           |
  +------+--------+---------+------------+---------+
  |      | art    | science | art        | science |
  +------+--------+---------+------------+---------+
  |fac1  |    1.1 |     1.2 |        1.3 |     1.4 |
  +------+--------+---------+------------+---------+
  |fac2  |    2.1 |     2.2 |        2.3 |     2.4 |
  +------+--------+---------+------------+---------+

This table contains parameters (all the headings) and numbers. The
numbers are our VALUES while the headings are our PARAMS.

Now the parameters are organized in a specific way: each value
represents exactly one heading out of the following sets: {fac1,
fac2}, {locals, non-locals}, {art, science}.

The value 1.2, for instance, stands for 'fac1' and 'locals' and
'science' (and it is the only value for this combination of
parameters).

We can therefore write the set of parameters as a tuple of tuples like
this::

  (('locals', 'non-locals'), ('art', 'science'), ('fac1', 'fac2'))

This way we define how parameters must be used with an instance of the
:class:`FeeTable` class below and its methods. Please note that order
of elements matters in tuples!

We can set whatever headers we like and the order is not important,
until we want to set/get the single values.

The values then must be set accordingly. If the above tuple defines
the parameters, then the following nested tuple represents respective
values that can be assigned to a fixed set of parameters::

  (
   ((1.1, 2.1),   # locals, art, fac1/fac2
    (1.2, 2.2)),  # locals, science, fac1/fac2
   ((1.3, 2.3),   # non-locals, art, fac1/fac2
    (1.4, 2.4)),  # non-locals, science, fac1/fac2
  )

This is complicated. Let's have a closer look. If we have N param
tuples, then the values must be delivered with a nesting level of N as
well:

  params := (A, B, C)  ->  N=3 -> (((...)))  [tuples with N levels]

Each inner tuple must contain as much elements as the last param. So,
if C contains three headings, then all inner tuples must be triples:

  params := (A, B, C), C:= ('f1', 'f2', 'f3') -> (((v1, v2, v3), ...))

For practical purposes you can imagine the above values as a table as
well:

  +-----------+---------+-------+--------+
  |           |         |  fac1 |   fac2 |
  +-----------+---------+-------+--------+
  |locals     | art     |   1.1 |    2.1 |
  |           | science |   1.2 |    2.2 |
  |non-locals | art     |   1.3 |    2.3 |
  |           | science |   1.4 |    2.4 |
  +-----------+---------+-------+--------+

Now, if you look closely and read the table from left to right
column-wise and from top to bottom, you will notice that the order of
appearances of headings is exactly like in the `params` tuple defined
above:

  ('locals', 'non-locals'), ('art', 'science'), ('fac1', 'fac2')

The only condition is, that column headings are not nested. If they
are, but row headings are not, then simply 'turn' the table by 90
degrees and you have a table that can be used as a pattern for input.

This should help to create fee tables out of tuples.

We'll try to provide more convenient input methods in future.
