vector_projection Function

public pure function vector_projection(x, y) result(rst)

Computes the vector pojection of vector x onto vector y. The vector projection is defined such that $proj_{y} \vec{x} = \frac{\vec{x} \cdot \vec{y}}{||\vec{y}||^{2}} \vec{y}$

Arguments

Type	Intent	Optional	Attributes		Name
real(kind=real64),	intent(in),		dimension(:)	::	x	The vector to project.
real(kind=real64),	intent(in),		dimension(size(x))	::	y	The vector onto which x should be projected.

Return Value real(kind=real64), (3)

The vector projection of x onto y.
