<p class="desc">Class representing a 4D [link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_space vector].
|
|
|
|
A 4D vector is an ordered quadruplet of numbers (labeled x, y, z, and w), which can be used to
|
|
represent a number of things, such as:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
A point in 4D space.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
A direction and length in 4D space. In three.js the length will always be the
|
|
[link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance Euclidean distance]
|
|
(straight-line distance) from `(0, 0, 0, 0)` to `(x, y, z, w)` and the direction is also
|
|
measured from `(0, 0, 0, 0)` towards `(x, y, z, w)`.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Any arbitrary ordered quadruplet of numbers.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are other things a 4D vector can be used to represent, however these are the most common uses in *three.js*.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Iterating through a [name] instance will yield its components `(x, y, z, w)` in the corresponding order.

|

|
|
const b = new THREE.Vector4( );
