VI Info - Figure 23  The diagram is a box with two arrows entering the left side of the box and one arrow exiting the right side of the box. A label inside the box reads "Point plus Vector Operation." The two arrows entering the box on the left are labeled Point and Vector. The arrow exiting the box on the right is labeled Point.

The applet that lets you interactively draw vectors appears again in Question 21. In this case, two points are shown as dots and labeled as (4,4) and (5,6). You can replicate the behavior of the applet and create the drawing using the program named SVGDraw01.
