Class | PVector
Name | ### set()
Examples |
    PVector v;

    void setup() {
      size(100, 100);

      v = new PVector(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
      v.set(vvv);
      println(v.x);  // Prints "20.0"
      println(v.y);  // Prints "30.0"
      println(v.z);  // Prints "40.0"
    }
Description | Sets the x, y, and z component of the vector using three separate variables, the data from a PVector, or the values from a float array.
Syntax |
    .set(x, y, z)
    .set(x, y)
    .set(v)
    .set(source)
Parameters |
x | float: the x component of the vector
y | float: the y component of the vector
z | float: the z component of the vector
x | float: the x component of the vector
y | float: the y component of the vector
v | PVector: any variable of type PVector
source | float[]: array to copy from
Returns | PVector
