Vectors are used everywhere in FreeCAD.
Example:
v=FreeCAD.Vector()
v=FreeCAD.Vector(1,0,0)
v=FreeCAD.Base.Vector()
v2 = FreeCAD.Vector(3,2,-5)
v3 = v.add(v2)
print v3.Length
Description: the distance between the vector and a line through Vector1 in direction Vector2.
Returns: float
Description: a vector to the closest point on a line segment from Vector1 to Vector2.
Returns: vector
Description: the distance between the vector and a plane defined by a point and a normal.
Returns: float
Description: multiplies (uniform scale) a vector by the given factor.
Returns: nothing
Description: projects the vector on a line through Vector1 in direction Vector2.
Returns: nothing
Description: projects the vector on a plane defined by a point (Vector1) and a normal (Vector2).
Returns: nothing
Description: Same as multiply but lets specify different values for x, y and z directions. (non-uniform scale)
Returns: nothing
