The Vector3d type exposes the following members.

	Name	Description
	Vector3d(Point3d)	Initializes a new instance of a vector, copying the three components from the three coordinates of a point.
	Vector3d(Vector3d)	Initializes a new instance of a vector, copying the three components from a vector.
	Vector3d(Vector3f)	Initializes a new instance of a vector, copying the three components from a single-precision vector.
	Vector3d(Double, Double, Double)	Initializes a new instance of a vector, using its three components.

	Name	Description
	IsUnitVector	Gets a value indicating whether or not this is a unit vector. A unit vector has length 1.
	IsValid	Gets a value indicating whether this vector is valid. A valid vector must be formed of valid component values for x, y and z.
	IsZero	Gets a value indicating whether the X, Y, and Z values are all equal to 0.0.
	Item	Gets or sets a vector component at the given index.
	Length	Computes the length (or magnitude, or size) of this vector. This is an application of Pythagoras' theorem. If this vector is invalid, its length is considered 0.
	MaximumCoordinate	Gets the largest (both positive and negative) component value in this vector.
	MinimumCoordinate	Gets the smallest (both positive and negative) component value in this vector.
	SquareLength	Computes the squared length (or magnitude, or size) of this vector. This is an application of Pythagoras' theorem. While the Length property checks for input validity, this property does not. You should check validity in advance, if this vector can be invalid.
	Unset	Gets the value of the vector with each component set to RhinoMath.UnsetValue.
	X	Gets or sets the X (first) component of the vector.
	XAxis	Gets the value of the vector with components 1,0,0.
	Y	Gets or sets the Y (second) component of the vector.
	YAxis	Gets the value of the vector with components 0,1,0.
	Z	Gets or sets the Z (third) component of the vector.
	ZAxis	Gets the value of the vector with components 0,0,1.
	Zero	Gets the value of the vector with components 0,0,0.

	Name	Description
	Add	Sums up two vectors. (Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the + operator otherwise)
	CompareTo	Compares this Vector3d with another Vector3d. Component evaluation priority is first X, then Y, then Z.
	CrossProduct	Computes the cross product (or vector product, or exterior product) of two vectors. This operation is not commutative.
	Divide	Divides a Vector3d by a number, having the effect of shrinking it. (Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the / operator otherwise)
	EpsilonEquals	Check that all values in other are within epsilon of the values in this
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified System.Object is a Vector3d and has the same values as the present vector. (Overrides ValueType.Equals(Object).)
	Equals(Vector3d)	Determines whether the specified vector has the same value as the present vector.
	GetHashCode	Computes the hash code for the current vector. (Overrides ValueType.GetHashCode().)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	IsParallelTo(Vector3d)	Determines whether this vector is parallel to another vector, within one degree (within Pi / 180).
	IsParallelTo(Vector3d, Double)	Determines whether this vector is parallel to another vector, within a provided tolerance.
	IsPerpendicularTo(Vector3d)	Test to see whether this vector is perpendicular to within one degree of another one.
	IsPerpendicularTo(Vector3d, Double)	Determines whether this vector is perpendicular to another vector, within a provided angle tolerance.
	IsTiny()	Uses RhinoMath.ZeroTolerance for IsTiny calculation.
	IsTiny(Double)	Determines whether a vector is very short.
	Multiply(Double, Vector3d)	Multiplies a vector by a number, having the effect of scaling it. (Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the * operator otherwise)
	Multiply(Vector3d, Vector3d)	Multiplies two vectors together, returning the dot product (or inner product). This differs from the cross product. (Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the * operator otherwise)
	Multiply(Vector3d, Double)	Multiplies a vector by a number, having the effect of scaling it. (Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the * operator otherwise)
	Negate	Computes the reversed vector. (Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the - unary operator otherwise)
	PerpendicularTo	Sets this vector to be perpendicular to another vector. Result is not unitized.
	Reverse	Reverses this vector in place (reverses the direction). If this vector is Invalid, no changes will occur and false will be returned.
	Rotate	Rotates this vector around a given axis.
	Subtract	Subtracts the second vector from the first one. (Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the - operator otherwise)
	ToString	Returns the string representation of the current vector, in the form X,Y,Z. (Overrides ValueType.ToString().)
	Transform	Transforms the vector in place. The transformation matrix acts on the left of the vector; i.e., result = transformation*vector
	Unitize	Unitizes the vector in place. A unit vector has length 1 unit. An invalid or zero length vector cannot be unitized.
	VectorAngle(Vector3d, Vector3d)	Compute the angle between two vectors. This operation is commutative.
	VectorAngle(Vector3d, Vector3d, Plane)	Computes the angle on a plane between two vectors.
	VectorAngle(Vector3d, Vector3d, Vector3d)	Computes the angle of v1, v2 with a normal vector.

	Name	Description
	Addition	Sums up two vectors.
	Division	Divides a Vector3d by a number, having the effect of shrinking it.
	Equality	Determines whether two vectors have the same value.
	GreaterThan	Determines whether the first specified vector comes after (has superior sorting value than) the second vector. Components evaluation priority is first X, then Y, then Z.
	GreaterThanOrEqual	Determines whether the first specified vector comes after (has superior sorting value than) the second vector, or it is equal to it. Components evaluation priority is first X, then Y, then Z.
	Implicit(Vector3f to Vector3d)	Converts a single-precision (float) vector in a double-precision vector, without needing casting.
	Inequality	Determines whether two vectors have different values.
	LessThan	Determines whether the first specified vector comes before (has inferior sorting value than) the second vector. Components evaluation priority is first X, then Y, then Z.
	LessThanOrEqual	Determines whether the first specified vector comes before (has inferior sorting value than) the second vector, or it is equal to it. Components evaluation priority is first X, then Y, then Z.
	Multiply(Double, Vector3d)	Multiplies a vector by a number, having the effect of scaling it.
	Multiply(Vector3d, Vector3d)	Multiplies two vectors together, returning the dot product (or inner product). This differs from the cross product.
	Multiply(Vector3d, Double)	Multiplies a vector by a number, having the effect of scaling it.
	Subtraction	Subtracts the second vector from the first one.
	UnaryNegation	Computes the opposite vector.
