Learn how to compare column matrices for equality, compare two points for equality, compare two vectors for equality, add one column matrix to another, subtract one column matrix from another, and get a displacement vector from one point to another.
Table of contents
Preface
This module is one in a series of modules designed for teaching
GAME2302 Mathematical Applications for Game Development at Austin
Community College in Austin, TX.
What you have learned
In the previous module, you learned how to update the game-math library to
provide new capabilities including the addition of graphics and
set methods for
column matrices, points, vectors, and lines. You also learned how to draw onoff-screen images.
What you will learn
In this module, you will learn how to compare column matrices for equality,
compare two points for equality, compare two vectors for equality, add onecolumn matrix to another, subtract one column matrix from another, and get a
displacement vector from one point to another.
