 Function vector:normalize | |
| Returns a normalized representation of the vector. | |
| Syntax | vector:normalize() |
| Returns | number |
| Part of | ComputerCraft |
| API | vector |
Examples
 Example | |
| Normalizes a vector and prints the resulting vector. Also prints the length to show it does equal 1. | |
| Code |
local a = vector.new(1, 2, 3) local c = a:normalize() print(c.x) print(c.y) print(c.z) print(c:length()) --0.26726124 --0.5345225 --0.80178374 --1 |
| Example | |
| Code to recreate the function. Gives insight into what the function does. | |
| Code |
local a = vector.new(1, 2, 3) local len = a:length() local c = vector.new(a.x / len, a.y / len, a.z / len) --c.x = 0.26726124 --c.y = 0.5345225 --c.z = 0.80178374 |
