Vectors

While much vector math can be done with basic arithmetic patterns, some operations require more specialized functionality. This chapter provides some of these.

Primary Distortion

Vector -> Number

Returns the X component of the given vector.

Secondary Distortion

Vector -> Number

Returns the Y component of the given vector.

Tertiary Distortion

Vector -> Number

Returns the Z component of the given vector.

Absorption Distortion

Number, Number, Number -> Vector

Merges three input numbers into a vector.

Magnitude Distortion

Vector -> Number

Returns the length of the given vector.

Alignment Distortion

Vector, Vector -> Number

Returns the dot product of the given vectors.

Perpendicular Distortion

Vector, Vector -> Vector

Returns the cross product of the given vectors.

Regularity Distortion

Vector -> Vector

Normalizes the given vector to a length of one.

Aligned Regularity Distortion

Vector -> Vector

Normalizes the given vector to a length of one and aligns it to the nearest cardinal axis.
