Understanding linear algebra is crucial to being able to make video games. Today we went over some of the basics:
1) Adding vectors
2) Subtracting two position vectors to get a displacement vector (a vector pointing from one to the other)

3) Multiplying a vector and scalar to scale it up
4) Dividing a vector by a scalar to shrink it
5) Using the Pythagorean theorem to get the length of a vector.
6) How to normalize a vector by dividing it by its length.
