Maybe it makes sense to call this FixedVector or BlockVector and save the Vector class for real mathematicians.

Of course, we already had a java.util.Vector still alive.

The second comment is that the users should not like to handle the details on the vector size, they only desire the vector computation power! We should wrap all these details, provide a high level abstract for the vector in terms of the math concept, do the loop in our private code and pad the tail. User just say "I want vector a subtract vector b", then we give him a result.
