As of GLM 0.9.7.0, GLM also provides the \verb|GLM_META_PROG_HELPERS|, which enables \verb|static| members that provide information about vector, matrix, and quaternion types at compile time in a manner suitable for template metaprogramming.

By default, the nullary (zero-argument) constructors of vectors and matrices initialize their components to zero, as is required in the GLSL specification. Such behavior is reliable and convenient, but sometimes unnecessary. Disable it at compilation time by defining \verb|GLM_FORCE_NO_CTOR_INIT| before including any GLM headers.
