Vect4

Vect4 is a 4D vector structure with floating-point components for homogeneous coordinates, quaternions, and other four-component spatial calculations.

---

Fields

Field	Type	Description
X	float	The X-component of the vector
Y	float	The Y-component of the vector
Z	float	The Z-component of the vector
W	float	The W-component of the vector

---

Constructors

// Create from X, Y, Z, and W components
var v1 = new Vect4(10f, 20f, 5f, 1f);

---

Properties

Property	Description
X	The X-component of the vector
Y	The Y-component of the vector
Z	The Z-component of the vector
W	The W-component of the vector

---

Common Use Cases

Use Case	Description
Homogeneous coordinates	3D transformations with W component
Quaternions	Rotation storage (X, Y, Z, W)
Color with alpha	RGBA color values
Shader uniforms	4D vector uniforms for shaders

---

Shader Usage

Vect4 is commonly used for shader uniforms that require 4D vectors.

// Set a vec4 uniform in a shader
shader.SetUniform("uColor", new Vect4(1f, 0.5f, 0f, 1f));
shader.SetUniform("uQuaternion", new Vect4(0f, 0f, 0f, 1f));
shader.SetUniform("uPosition", new Vect4(10f, 20f, 5f, 1f));

---

Summary

Vect4 is a simple immutable struct for 4D spatial calculations, commonly used for homogeneous coordinates, quaternions, colors with alpha, and shader uniforms.
