standardiyksikövektorit
Standardiyksikkövektorit, or standard basis vectors in English, are fundamental vectors used to define a coordinate system. In a Cartesian coordinate system, there are typically as many standard basis vectors as there are dimensions. Each standard basis vector has a length of one (it's a unit vector) and points along one of the coordinate axes.
In a two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, there are two standard basis vectors. The first vector, often
In three-dimensional Cartesian space, there are three standard basis vectors. Commonly denoted as i, j, and k,
The concept extends to higher dimensions. In n-dimensional space, there are n standard basis vectors, each corresponding
