This function implements an order relation between univariate functional data based on the area-under-curve relation, that is to say a pre-order relation obtained by comparing the area-under-curve of two different functional data.

1	area_ordered(fData, gData)

`fData`	the first univariate functional dataset containing elements to be compared, in form of `fData` object.
`gData`	the second univariate functional dataset containing elements to be compared , in form of `fData` object.

Given a univariate functional dataset, X_1(t), X_2(t), …, X_N(t) and another functional dataset Y_1(t), Y_2(t), …, Y_M(t) defined over the same compact interval I=[a,b], the function computes the area-under-curve (namely, the integral) in both the datasets, and checks whether the first ones are lower or equal than the second ones.

By default the function tries to compare each X_i(t) with the corresponding Y_i(t), thus assuming N=M, but when either N=1 or M=1, the comparison is carried out cycling over the dataset with fewer elements. In all the other cases (N\neq M, and either N \neq 1 or M \neq 1) the function stops.

The function returns a logical vector of length \max(N,M) containing the value of the predicate for all the corresponding elements.
