public void Normalize();

Examples

The following example shows how to use this method to normalize a vector.

C#
private Vector normalizeExample()
{
    Vector vectorResult = new Vector(20, 30);

    // A normalized vector maintains its direction but 
    // its length becomes 1. 
    // vectorResult is approximately equal to (0.5547,0.8321).
    vectorResult.Normalize();

    return vectorResult;
}

Remarks

A normalized vector maintains its direction but its Length becomes 1. The resulting vector is often called a unit vector. A vector is normalized by dividing the vector by its own Length.
