<description>
[AABB] consists of a position, a size, and several utility functions. It is typically used for fast overlap tests.
It uses floating-point coordinates. The 2D counterpart to [AABB] is [Rect2].
[b]Note:[/b] Unlike [Rect2], [AABB] does not have a variant that uses integer coordinates.

<methods>
<method name="AABB">
<return type="AABB" />
<argument index="0" name="position" type="Vector3" />
<argument index="1" name="size" type="Vector3" />
<description>
Constructs an [AABB] from a position and size.
</description>
</method>
<method name="abs">
<return type="AABB" />
<description>
Returns an AABB with equivalent position and size, modified so that the most-negative corner is the origin and the size is positive.
</description>
</method>
<method name="encloses">
<return type="bool" />
<argument index="0" name="with" type="AABB" />
<description>
Returns [code]true[/code] if this [AABB] completely encloses another one.
</description>
</method>
<method name="expand">
<return type="AABB" />
<argument index="0" name="to_point" type="Vector3" />
<description>
Returns a copy of this [AABB] expanded to include a given point.
[b]Example:[/b]
[codeblock]
# position (-3, 2, 0), size (1, 1, 1)
var box = AABB(Vector3(-3, 2, 0), Vector3(1, 1, 1))
# position (-3, -1, 0), size (3, 4, 2), so we fit both the original AABB and Vector3(0, -1, 2)
var box2 = box.expand(Vector3(0, -1, 2))
[/codeblock]
