Name

set()

Class

PVector

Description

Sets the x, y, and z component of the vector using two or three separate variables, the data from a PVector, or the values from a float array.

Examples

  • PVector v;

void setup() {
  size(100, 100);
  v = new PVector(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
  v.set(20.0, 30.0, 40.0);
  println(v.x);  // Prints "20.0"
  println(v.y);  // Prints "30.0"
  println(v.z);  // Prints "40.0"
}

  • PVector v;
float[] vvv = { 20.0, 30.0, 40.0 };

void setup() {
  size(100, 100);
  v = new PVector(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
  v.set(vvv);
  println(v.x);  // Prints "20.0"
  println(v.y);  // Prints "30.0"
  println(v.z);  // Prints "40.0"
}

  • PVector v1, v2;

void setup() {
  size(100, 100);
  v1 = new PVector(20.0, 30.0, 40.0);
  v2 = new PVector(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
  v2.set(v1);
  println(v2.x);  // Prints "20.0"
  println(v2.y);  // Prints "30.0"
  println(v2.z);  // Prints "40.0"
}

Syntax

  • .set(x, y, z)

  • y(float)the y component of the vector
  • v(PVector)any variable of type PVector
  • source(float[])array to copy from

Return

  • PVector
