What do we mean by vector?

A quantity, such as velocity, completely specified by a magnitude and a direction. noun

A one-dimensional array. noun

An element of a vector space. noun

An organism, such as a mosquito or tick, that carries disease-causing microorganisms from one host to another. noun

A bacteriophage, plasmid, or other agent that transfers genetic material from one cell to another. noun

A force or influence. noun

A course or direction, as of an airplane. noun

To guide (a pilot or aircraft, for example) by means of radio communication according to vectors. transitive verb

In quaternions, a quantity which, being added to any point of space, gives as the sum that point which is at a certain distance in a certain direction from the first. noun

Hence— A directive quantity; a quantity determined by two numbers giving its direction and a third giving its magnitude. noun

Same as radius vector. See radius. noun

Of the nature of or concerned with vectors.

Same as radius vector. noun

A directed quantity, as a straight line, a force, or a velocity. Vectors are said to be equal when their directions are the same and their magnitudes equal. Cf. Scalar. noun

A directed quantity, one with both magnitude and direction; the signed difference between two points. noun

An ordered tuple representing a directed quantity or the signed difference between two points. noun

Any member of a (generalized) vector space. noun

A chosen course or direction for motion, as of an aircraft. noun

A carrier of a disease-causing agent. noun

A directed quantity, one with both magnitude and direction; the signed difference between two points.

An ordered tuple representing a directed quantity or the signed difference between two points.

Any member of a (generalized) vector space.

A chosen course or direction for motion, as of an aircraft.

A carrier of a disease-causing agent.

(by extension) A person or entity that passes along an urban legend or other meme.
