A Bit(e) of Game Dev Math | 05 — The Dot Product
<p>Welcome back, game development enthusiasts! As we delve deeper into the intricacies of advanced vector operations, our spotlight today is on the <strong>Dot Product</strong>. This mathematical maestro plays a vital role in various game development scenarios, offering a versatile set of calculations that can elevate your projects to new heights.</p>
<p>The Dot Product, often denoted as <em>V</em>⋅<em>W</em>, is a mathematical operation that takes two vectors, <em>V</em> and <em>W</em>, and produces a scalar value. Unlike Vector Projection, which involves finding the component of one vector in the direction of another, the Dot Product focuses on the overall alignment and interaction between vectors.</p>
