For example, `float3` is a convenient name for `vector<float,3>`. +> Note: Slang doesn't support vectors longer than 4 elements. They map to native vector types on many platforms, including CUDA, and none of these platforms support vectors longer than 4 elements. If needed, you can use an array like `float myArray[8]`. + ### Matrix Types Matrix types can be written as `matrix<T,R,C>` where `T` is a scalar type and both `R` and `C` are integers from 2 to 4 (inclusive). |
