SquaredLengthNode

 

Introduced

UI Location

• Math > Vector

Description

Outputs the squared length of the input value. Calculating the squared length of a vector is faster than calculating its length. It is therefore wiser to use the squared length when possible, for example if you want to determine whether a vector is longer than another.
