Mathematical operations that apply to all vectors, such as computing their length

Mathematical definition

Computes the Euclidean norm of the vector.

Computes the length of a vector.

Arguments	Return Type
`length()`	number

Computes the length of a vector, squared. Due to the nature of the length calculation, this is a little bit faster than length.

Arguments	Return Type
`lengthSquared()`	number

Computes the Dot product between two vectors. The argument must be the same type as the target vector.

Arguments	Return Type
`dot(Vector other)`	number
