Description:

Divides vector by scalar, by dividing all vector elements.

ⓘ

vectorMultiply can be used instead as vector vectorMultiply 1/scale, but:

scale cannot be 0
in some rare cases, the result is not exactly the same as BIS_fnc_vectorDivide - this is due to Floating Point Number precision and rounding.

Execution:

call

Groups:

Vectors

Syntax:: [vector, divider] call BIS_fnc_vectorDivide
Parameters:: vector: Array of Numbers - (Optional, default [0,0,0]) can be any array of numbers
: divider: Number - (Optional, default 1)
Return Value:: Array of Numbers
