A 4D vector using floating point coordinates.
A 4-element structure that can be used to represent 4D coordinates or any other quadruplet of numeric values.
It uses floating-point coordinates. By default, these floating-point values use 32-bit precision, unlike [float] which is always 64-bit. If double precision is needed, compile the engine with the option [code]precision=double[/code].
See [Vector4i] for its integer counterpart.
[b]Note:[/b] In a boolean context, a Vector4 will evaluate to [code]false[/code] if it's equal to [code]Vector4(0, 0, 0, 0)[/code]. Otherwise, a Vector4 will always evaluate to [code]true[/code].

Performs a cubic interpolation between this vector and [param b] using [param pre_a] and [param post_b] as handles, and returns the result at position [param weight]. [param weight] is on the range of 0.0 to 1.0, representing the amount of interpolation.

It can perform smoother interpolation than [method cubic_interpolate] by the time values.
Returns the normalized vector pointing from this vector to [param to]. This is equivalent to using [code](b - a).normalized()[/code].

Returns the distance between this vector and [param to].
Returns the dot product of this vector and [param with].
Returns a new vector with all components rounded down (towards negative infinity).

This method is faster than using [method is_equal_approx] with one value as a zero vector.
Returns the length (magnitude) of this vector.
Returns the squared length (squared magnitude) of this vector.
This method runs faster than [method length], so prefer it if you need to compare vectors or need the squared distance for some formula.

Returns the axis of the vector's highest value. See [code]AXIS_*[/code] constants. If all components are equal, this method returns [constant AXIS_X].
Returns the axis of the vector's lowest value. See [code]AXIS_*[/code] constants. If all components are equal, this method returns [constant AXIS_W].

One vector, a vector with all components set to [code]1[/code].
Infinity vector, a vector with all components set to [constant @GDScript.INF].

Compares two [Vector4] vectors by first checking if the X value of the left vector is less than the X value of the [param right] vector. If the X values are exactly equal, then it repeats this check with the Y values of the two vectors, Z values of the two vectors, and then with the W values. This operator is useful for sorting vectors.

Access vector components using their [param index]. [code]v[0][/code] is equivalent to [code]v.x[/code], [code]v[1][/code] is equivalent to [code]v.y[/code], [code]v[2][/code] is equivalent to [code]v.z[/code], and [code]v[3][/code] is equivalent to [code]v.w[/code].
Returns the same value as if the [code]+[/code] was not there. Unary [code]+[/code] does nothing, but sometimes it can make your code more readable.
Returns the negative value of the [Vector4]. This is the same as writing [code]Vector4(-v.x, -v.y, -v.z, -v.w)[/code]. This operation flips the direction of the vector while keeping the same magnitude. With floats, the number zero can be either positive or negative.
