how to use System.Windows.Vector in uwp
In Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps, you can use the System.Windows.Vector
struct to represent a 2D vector. This struct is part of the WindowsBase
assembly and provides properties and methods for performing vector-related calculations.
To use System.Windows.Vector
in your UWP app, follow these steps:
Reference the
WindowsBase
Assembly:
Ensure that your UWP project references theWindowsBase
assembly, which contains theSystem.Windows.Vector
struct.Import the
System.Windows
Namespace:
In your code file, import theSystem.Windows
namespace to access theVector
struct:csharpusing System.Windows;
Create and Use Vectors:
Once you have imported theSystem.Windows
namespace, you can create and useVector
instances in your code. Here are some common tasks you can perform withVector
:Create a new
Vector
:csharpVector vector = new Vector(3, 4); // Creates a vector (3, 4)
Access the X and Y components of the
Vector
:csharpdouble x = vector.X;
double y = vector.Y;
Perform vector addition and subtraction:
csharpVector vector1 = new Vector(3, 4);
Vector vector2 = new Vector(1, 2);
Vector sum = vector1 + vector2; // Performs vector addition
Vector difference = vector1 - vector2; // Performs vector subtraction
Calculate the dot product of two vectors:
csharpdouble dotProduct = Vector.Multiply(vector1, vector2);
Normalize a vector:
csharpvector.Normalize();
Calculate the length of a vector:
csharpdouble length = vector.Length;
These are just some examples of what you can do with
System.Windows.Vector
. It provides several other methods and properties for performing various vector operations.
Keep in mind that System.Windows.Vector
is specifically designed for 2D vector calculations, and it may not provide all the advanced features of a full-fledged linear algebra library. If you need more advanced vector operations or linear algebra functionalities, you may consider using third-party libraries specifically designed for those purposes.
