vx

Vector and linear algebra toolbelt for NumPy.

Features

• normalize normalizes a vector.
• sproj computes the scalar projection of one vector onto another.
• proj computes the vector projection of one vector onto another.
• reject computes the vector rejection of one vector from another.
• reject_axis zeros or squashes one component of a vector.
• magnitude computes the magnitude of a vector.
• angle computes the unsigned angle between two vectors.
• signed_angle computes the signed angle between two vectors.
• almost_zero tests if a vector is almost the zero vector.
• almost_collinear tests if two vectors are almost collinear.
• pad_with_ones adds a column of ones.
• unpad strips off a column (e.g. of ones).
• apply_homogeneous applies a transformation matrix using homogeneous coordinates.
• Complete documentation: http://vx.readthedocs.io/

Installation

pip install numpy vector_shortcuts

Usage

import numpy as np
import vx

projected = vx.sproj(np.array([5.0, -3.0, 1.0]), onto=vx.basis.neg_y)
