Vector3

Three component vector class modeled after the XNA Game Studio math library.

Header

#include <SimpleMath.h>

Initialization

using namespace DirectX::SimpleMath;

Vector3 v;          // Creates a vector [0, 0, 0]
Vector3 v(10);      // Creates a vector [10, 10, 10]
Vector3 v(1, 2, 3); // Creates a vector [1, 2, 3]

float arr[3] = { 1, 2, 3 };
Vector3 v(arr);     // Creates a vector [1, 2, 3]
