Vector3dMultiply Operator (Vector3d, Vector3d) |
Multiplies two vectors together, returning the dot product (or inner product).
This differs from the cross product.
Namespace:
Rhino.Geometry
Assembly:
RhinoCommon (in RhinoCommon.dll)
Since: 5.0
Syntax public static double operator *(
Vector3d vector1,
Vector3d vector2
)
Public Shared Operator * (
vector1 As Vector3d,
vector2 As Vector3d
) As Double
Parameters
- vector1
- Type: Rhino.GeometryVector3d
A vector. - vector2
- Type: Rhino.GeometryVector3d
A second vector.
Return Value
Type:
Double
A value that results from the evaluation of v1.X*v2.X + v1.Y*v2.Y + v1.Z*v2.Z.
This value equals v1.Length * v2.Length * cos(alpha), where alpha is the angle between vectors.
