Vector2

Represents a 2D vector with floating-point components.

Vector2 stores an (x, y) pair and is used for positions, directions, UV coordinates, and general 2D math. It provides basic arithmetic, normalization, and utility helpers.

Construction

Constructors

Vector2() constexpr

Constructs a vector with both components set to the same value.

Vector2::Vector2(float value);

Parameter	Description
value	Value to assign to both components.

Vector2() constexpr

Constructs a vector from individual components.

Vector2::Vector2(float x, float y);

Parameter	Description
x	X component.
y	Y component.

Properties

x float

X component.

float x {};

y float

Y component.

float y {};

Functions

Length() float

Returns the vector length.

float Vector2::Length() const;

LengthSquared() float

Returns the squared vector length.

float Vector2::LengthSquared() const;

Max() Vector2&

Applies a component-wise maximum with another vector.

Vector2& Vector2::Max(const Vector2& v);

Parameter	Description
v	Vector to compare against.

Min() Vector2&

Applies a component-wise minimum with another vector.

Vector2& Vector2::Min(const Vector2& v);

Parameter	Description

Parameter	Description
v	Vector to multiply.

operator*=() Vector2&

Multiplies the vector by a scalar in-place.

Vector2& Vector2::operator* =(float n);

Parameter	Description
n	Scalar value.

operator+=() Vector2&

Adds another vector in-place.

Vector2& Vector2::operator+=(const Vector2& v);

Parameter	Description
v	Vector to add.

operator-=() Vector2&

Subtracts another vector in-place.

Vector2& Vector2::operator-=(const Vector2& v);

Parameter	Description
v	Vector to subtract.

operator[]() float &

Accesses a component by index.

float& Vector2::operator[](int i);

Parameter	Description
i	Index: 0 → x, 1 → y.

operator[]() const float

Accesses a component by index.

const float Vector2::operator[](int i) const;

Parameter	Description
i	Index: 0 → x, 1 → y.

Vector2::Right() Vector2
