It doesn''t really make sense to find the intersection of vectors. Perhaps you mean lines or rays?

Yes, lines, rays, vectors, whatever you call them they are lines and I need to find where they cross.

why wouldn't it make sense to find where vectors intersect? Is it just that you can't think of any use for it, or because it is impossible or something? Or what?

EDIT: Can this be a vector, or is it only a coordinate

Okay, it doesn''t make sense for vectors to intersect because they aren''t lines or rays themselves. Judging by the questions you''re asking, you don''t really know a whole lot about vectors and such so I would recommend this:

http://www.flipcode.com/geometry/

It''s an excellent series on 3D geometry. It includes line intersections in one of the latest articles.

Thanks for the cool site, has a lot of useful info. I''ll be spending some days there.
