Description

Returns the components of a comparison of two vectors.

The vector component of v1 along v2 in v3, and the vector component of v1 orthogonal to v2 in v4.

PROCEDURE Comp(
        v1       :VECTOR;
        v2       :VECTOR;
        VAR v3   :VECTOR;
        VAR v4   :VECTOR);

def vs.Comp(v1, v2, v3, v4):
    return (v3, v4)

Parameters

v1		VECTOR		Comparison vector 1.
v2		VECTOR		Comparison vector 2
v3		VECTOR		Component of vector 1 along vector 2
v4		VECTOR		Component of vector 1 orthogonal to vector 2.

Remarks

(Orso, 2010 Dec. 22) On Vectorlab there is a diagram of how Comp works.
