**Format:**

[x, y, z] where x, y and z are [Numbers](../topics/Number.md)

**Description:**

Represents a 3-dimensional vector in space.

A **[normalised](../commands/vectorNormalized.md)** vector means that each value is within range -1..+1.

The return array can be processed-converted into degrees as follows:

```sqf
_vDir = player weaponDirection primaryWeapon player;
_aDir = _vDir # 0 atan2 _vDir # 1;
```
