> # NAME

> length - return scalar Euclidean length of a vector

> # SYNOPSIS

>       float length( float  v );
>       float length( float1 v );
>       float length( float2 v );
>       float length( float3 v );
>       float length( float4 v );

>       half length( half  v );
>       half length( half1 v );
>       half length( half2 v );
>       half length( half3 v );
>       half length( half4 v );

>       fixed length( fixed  v );
>       fixed length( fixed1 v );
>       fixed length( fixed2 v );
>       fixed length( fixed3 v );
>       fixed length( fixed4 v );

> # PARAMETERS

> v

>   Vector of which to determine the length.

> # DESCRIPTION

> Returns the Euclidean length of a vector.

> # REFERENCE IMPLEMENTATION

> length for a float3 vector could be implemented like this.

>       float length(float3 v)
>       {
>         return sqrt(dot(v,v));
>       }

> # PROFILE SUPPORT

> length is supported in all profiles.

> Support in the fp20 is limited.

> # SEE ALSO

> max, normalize, sqrt, dot
