# vectogebra v 0.0.10 - 29 May 2022
### Python module for vector algebra
easy to use vector algebra library for python, that lets you work with vectors in an efficient way.
apart from core vector object, many other vector operations are supported.
these can be imported from vectogebra.utilities.
this library was made by keeping its applications in Physics in mind (Mechanics, Optics, etc.)
- does not depend on any external libraries except math library.
- fully functional
- easy to use
- supports nearly all vector operations
- beginner friendly
- physics friendly
- Open for modifications
## 🌠 Install
```bash
pip install --upgrade vectogebra
```
### ⭐ Start by importing the vector class
```python
import vectogebra.vector as vect
```
_OR_
```python
from vectogebra import vector as vect
```
### ⭐ Also import useful utility functions
```python
import vectogebra.utitlies as vut
```
_OR_
```python
from vectogebra import utilities as vut
```
### ⭐ import functions for geometry applications :
```python
from vectogebra import geometry as geo
```
_OR_
```python
import vectogebra.geometry as geo
```
## 🧾 Description of the module
this module currently have two components : one is `vectogebra.vector`, which is the vector class (boject) defination. it contains the basic functionality.
the second component, `vectogebra.utilities` contains useful functions that are defined for the above mentioned vector class like, function to find angle between
two vectors, etc.
Create a vector object :
```python
import vectogebra.vector as vect
v1 = vect(1,2,3)
```
### 🔢 Algebric operations :
#### 1. Addition
consider two(or more) vectors : a,b,...
their sum will be given by :
`s = a + b + ...`
sum `s` will also be a vector object.
#### 2. Subtraction
Vectors can be subtracted using the minus (`-`) operator.
example :
`s = a - b + c - d + ...`
resultant `s` will also be a vector object.
#### 3. Dot product / scalar product and scalar multiplication
the `*` operator will be used for dot product, or multiplication by a scalar.
example :
`p = a * b * c * d * ...` is same as "a dot b dot c dot ...".
`p = 5*v` OR `v*5` is same as "scalar 5 multiplied to vector v".
#### 4. Cross product / vector multiplication
the `^` operator (XOR operator) will be used for cross product, or vector product.
example :
`p = a^b` is same as "p equals a cross b".
#### 5. division by a scalar
simply divide a vector by a scalar.
NOTE : division by zero or division vector is not supported.
example :
`p = v / 5` is same as "p equals v divided by 5".
### ❌✔️ Logical operations :
#### 1. Equality
`a == b` returnes True when a and b are equal in magnitude and direction. else, it returns False
#### 2. Inequality
`a != b` have its usual meaning
#### 3. grater / lesser
the **magnitude** of the vectors can be compared using common logical operators.
```python
# a and b are vectors
a > b
a < b
a >= b
a <= b
```
## Attributes of the vector object

1. `v1.x` **OR** `v1.i`
2. `v1.y` **OR** `v1.j`
3. `v1.z` **OR** `v1.k`
### Magnitude
4. `v1.magnitude` **OR** `v1.mod`

## Useful classes for 3-Dimentional Geometry
### line :
represents a line in a 3D space
#### construction of a line :
1. Two - point form
- two points (positions vectors) or list/tuple/dict/string-representation of coordinates must be given to the constructor
- examples :
```py
import vectogebra.vector as vect
import vectogebra.geometry as geo
line1 = geo.line(vect(5,8,9),vect(1,6,3))
line2 = geo.line((5,8,9),(1,6,3)) # can replace tuples whit lists.
line3 = geo.line('5 8 9', '1 6 3')
# dict of components can also be used.
```
2. Point-direction form :
- one point on the line, and the direction vector can be used to define a line :
```py
line1 = geo.line(p = (1,5,3), d= (5,2,8))
# instead of thuples, list, or string 'x y z' or vectogebra's vector can also be used.
```
#### Attributes :
1. for direction : `d` or `dir` or `direction`
2. for point : `p` or `pt` or `point`
#### class line have many useful functions defined. check them in the source code. they will be listed here later.
### plane :
#### Methods of defining a plane
1. by a point and a normal vector :
```py
plane(point=(x,y,z),normal=(a,b,c))
```
- vector object or list of componens can also be used instead of tuples.
- instead of `point`, `p` or `pt` can also be used.
- instead of `normal`, `n` or `norm` can also be used.
2. by three points :
```py
plane((x1,y1,z1),(x2,y2,z2),(x3,y3,z3))
```
vector `vectogebra.vector(x,y,z)` object or lists of components `[x,y,z]` can also be used instead of tuples.
#### Attributes :
- position vector of the point on the plane : `p` or `pt` or `point`
- normal vector of the plane : `n` or `normal`
