#' @name mixturiseVector
#' @title Create Mixture Distribution From Multiple Vectors
#' @description Given `m` vector distributions of length `N`, creates a single vector
#' distribution consisting of `n` mixture distributions mixing the `m` vectors.
#' @details Let \eqn{v1 = (D11, D12,...,D1N)} and \eqn{v2 = (D21, D22,...,D2N)} then the
#' `mixturiseVector` function creates the vector distribution \eqn{v3 = (D31, D32, ..., D3N)}
#' where `D3N = m(D1N, D2N, wN)` where `m` is a mixture distribution with weights `wN`.
#' @param vecdists `(list())`\cr
#' List of [VectorDistribution]s, should be of same length and with the non-`distlist'
#' constructor with the same distribution.
#' @param weights `(character(1)|numeric())`\cr
#' Weights passed to [MixtureDistribution]. Default uniform weighting.
