gvector:z

List of:	Scheme Extensions
Subjects:	Mathematics
Contents:	Kernel

Action:

Gets the z-component of a gvector relative to the active coordinate system.

Filename:

kern/kern_scm/gvec_scm.cxx

Syntax:

(gvector:z gvector)

Arg Types:

gvector

gvector

Returns:

real

Description:

This extension returns the z-coordinate of the gvector, transformed to the active WCS.

gvector specifies a gvector.

Example:

; gvector:z

; Create a gvector.

(define vector1 (gvector 7 5 0 "spherical"))

;; vector1

; Determine the z-component of a gvector.
