Vector.DotProd Method (TMtxVec)

Scalar product of two real arrays.

Pascal

function DotProd(const Vec: TMtxVec): double; overload;

Calculates the dot product (scalar value) of the calling object and Vec object and returns a real scalar value. The dot product is defined by the equation:

Both objects must be of equal size. If they are not, the method will return the dot product of the largest sub-array.
