        numeric operator
        operators that multiply the coefficients of kets by some number (either an integer or a float)
        it preserves the structure of the input sequence
        also shows that application of operators to a sequence is really just a special type of multiplication
    examples:
        the |sp> => rank split |abcde>
        the |sp>
            |a> + 2|b> + 3|c> + 4|d> + 5|e>

        100 the |sp>
            100|a> + 200|b> + 300|c> + 400|d> + 500|e>

        -- a quick calculation of factorial:
        1 2 3 4 5 6 |x>
            720|x>

        -- a quick calculation of the square of 17:
        17^2 |x>
            289|x>
