The command evalVF(F, v) evaluates the vector field F at the point v.  The result is a rooted Vector with root point v.

The parameters, F and v, must have the same dimension, but do not need to be defined in the same coordinate system.

The vector field parameter, F, can also be specified as a Vector-valued procedure, in which case this procedure is evaluated at the coordinates of the Vector v.
