gvector:set-y!
List of: Scheme Extensions
Subjects: Mathematics
Contents: Kernel

Action: Sets the y-direction component of a gvector.

Filename: kern/kern_scm/gvec_scm.cxx

Syntax: (gvector:set-y! gvector y)

Arg Types: gvector gvector

y real

Returns: real

Description: The coordinates are computed relative to the active coordinate system. This extension returns the y-value as a real.


gvector identifies the original x-, y-, and z-values.


y specifies the value to replace the original y-value specified in gvector.

Example: ; gvector:set-y!

; Set new x-, y-, and z-components

; in an existing gvector.

(define vector1 (gvector 1 0 0))

;; vector1

; Set a new y-component in an existing gvector.

(gvector:set-y! vector1 6)

;; 6
