					As long the [aximos of vector spaces](https://www.math.ucla.edu/~tao/resource/general/121.1.00s/vector_axioms.html) apply to them, they're vectors.

**Additions and Subtraction**
 | 
					However, we won't go into such axioms as we're not interested in **abstract** thinking here.
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					We're aiming to do something **concrete** called **linear transformations** of a set of vertices (models). 
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					So it would be ideal for us to think of them like this:
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					
 | 
				
			||||||
**Division and Multiplication**
 | 
					- A vector describes a series of steps to perform a **transformation** in space.
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					- A vector has the properties: **direction** and **magntitude**.
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					- If its **magntitude** is exactly **1**, then it describes a **direction** in space and is called a **unit vector**.
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					Let's go over these points one by one.
