:Also, note that negate and either add or subtract could be defined in terms of the remaining operations.
:I hope this helps. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 06:19, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
:I think the number of components probably should be explicitly defined in the description, although if the task will definitely not extend beyond the basic operators it may be ok to allow a variety. Many operations extend to n-dimensional space but cross and triple product for example do not. Even between 2 and 3 dimensions cross product is completely different, usually a wedge product is used as an equivalent in 2 dimensions. Also implementations of operations can differ significantly based on the number of components, normal vectors for example (perpendicular surface normals). --[[User:dotxor|dotxor]] ([[User talk:dotxor|talk]]) 14:16, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
