class to hold 2 double values representing the x and y coordinates

[horace1]

Here i have next question, related to question above i think.
----------------


Now this time i stuck here with "...compris es a Point and ....". What does it means to you?

I know those question should be easy but sometimes it does confusing ppl with unclear definition or explanation.

any ideas?
(i think it should similar to the code i posted before.)

I would have thought a vector would have two Points for the vector start and end or does Vector mean something else in this context?

vector class is unrelated to STL vector. It just a simple class.

actually the answer wont be the compiled-well code. What to do is just write the code for each questions. Forget it about compiled-well mind..!

i'm not sure my code is correct, and there is no other ppl here can provide me with the better one, so i just follow my code.

thanks for the help anyway.

I am not talking about STL vectors but about a vector in 2D coordinate space - one would have a x1, y1 start Point and a x2, y2 end Point
I am not sure what you mean by a vector?

I am note what you mean by a vector?

no idea. cos teacher wont say and i have the question only.

forget about this question.


End of thread.

Vectors in the mathematical sense have an origin (x,y) a direction (maybe a slope or something to that effect) and a magnitude. You can give the origin and another point in the line of the vector and a magnitude but you can choose any other point on the vector line. Vectors don't have end points, they are rays of a certain magnitude.
