The Algebra of Vectors

Vectors can be made to make new vectors much in the same way that numbers can.

To add two vectors together in R, simply use the + command.

Vectors can also be scaled via multiplication by a real number (or scalar), using the * command.

Multiplication of two vectors is a trickier topic theoretically, but in R, component-wise multiplication of two vectors is legal and accomplished using the * command.

The vectors x, y, and z have been loaded for you.
