Description

Description:: Squared magnitude of a 3D vector.

2.14
Since 2.14 any count of numbers is valid.
Before 2.14, the argument had to be vector 3D, or 2.00 2D (With z coordinate defaulted to 0)
Groups:: Math - Vectors

Syntax

Syntax:: vectorMagnitudeSqr vector
Parameters:: vector: Array of Numbers
Return Value:: Number

Examples

Example 1:: _sizeSqr = vectorMagnitudeSqr [0,3,4]; // returns 25

Additional Information

See also:: vectorAdd vectorDiff vectorCrossProduct vectorDotProduct vectorCos vectorMagnitude vectorMultiply vectorDistance vectorDistanceSqr vectorDir vectorUp setVectorDir setVectorUp setVectorDirAndUp vectorNormalized vectorFromTo

ffur2007slx2_5: 1.22 Algorithm:
Vector = [x,y,z]; Result = (x ^ 2) + (y ^ 2) + (z ^ 2);
It is recommended to use vectorMagnitudeSqr instead of BIS_fnc_magnitudeSqr.
