Vector3 Struct

Definition

Namespace:

System.Numerics

Assembly:

System.Numerics.dll

Represents a vector with three single-precision floating-point values.

public value class Vector3 : IEquatable<System::Numerics::Vector3>, IFormattable

public struct Vector3 : IEquatable<System.Numerics.Vector3>, IFormattable

type Vector3 = struct
    interface IFormattable

Public Structure Vector3
Implements IEquatable(Of Vector3), IFormattable

Inheritance

Object

ValueType

Vector3

Implements

IEquatable<Vector3> IFormattable

Remarks

The Vector3 structure provides support for hardware acceleration.

For matrix transformations, the Vector2, Vector3, and Vector4 instances are represented as rows: a vector v is transformed by a matrix M with vM multiplication.
