Simple Vector Library for C, Implementing Ray Tracing and Rendering Applications

librayvector | Simple Vector Library

The librayvector is a lightweight single-header library for performing vector operations in C programming. It provides basic functionalities for working with 2D and 3D vectors, including addition, subtraction, dot product, cross product, normalization, and more. This library is suitable for C developers who need simple vector manipulation capabilities in their projects.

Features

• Support for 2D and 3D vectors (Vec2f and Vec3f).
• Vector addition and subtraction.
• Vector dot product calculation.
• Vector cross product calculation (only for 3D vectors).
• Vector normalization.
• Convenience functions for vector initialization and printing.

Usage

Including the Library

To use the C Vector Library in your C project, include the geometry.h header file:

#include "librayvector.h"

Initializing Vectors

Vec2f v2 = vec2f_init();
Vec3f v3 = vec3f_init();

Performing Vector Operations

Vec3f v1 = {1.0f, 2.0f, 3.0f};
Vec3f v2 = {4.0f, 5.0f, 6.0f};

// Vector addition
Vec3f result_add = vec3f_add(v1, v2);

// Vector subtraction
Vec3f result_sub = vec3f_subtract(v1, v2);

// Dot product
float dot_product = vec3f_dot(v1, v2);

// Cross product (only for 3D vectors)
Vec3f cross_product = vec3f_cross(v1, v2);

// Vector normalization
Vec3f normalized = vec3f_normalize(v1);

Printing Vectors

printf("Vector 2D: ");
vec2f_print(v2);

printf("Vector 3D: ");
vec3f_print(v3);
