Name

mult()

Class

PVector

Description

Multiplies a vector by a scalar. The version of the method that uses a float acts directly on the vector upon which it is called (as in the first example above). The versions that receive both a PVector and a float as arguments are static methods, and each returns a new PVector that is the result of the multiplication operation. Both examples above produce the same visual output.

Syntax

  • .mult(n)
  • .mult(v, n)
  • .mult(v, n, target)

Parameters

  • n(float)the number to multiply with the vector
  • v(PVector)the vector to multiply by the scalar
  • target(PVector)PVector in which to store the result

Return

  • PVector
