llList2Vector

function

Function syntax

vector llList2Vector(

list src,// Source list containing the element of interest.
integer index// Zero-based index of the entry.

);

Returns: vector
Energy: 10

Returns the vector value at index in the list src. Returns ZERO_VECTOR if the index is out of bounds or if the value cannot be type-cast.

Returns a vector that is at index in src.

vector result = llList2Vector([], 0);

Caveats

When used to typecast from a string it will result in a ZERO_VECTOR
A true typecast will solve this: (vector)llList2String(src, index);
Unfortunately, if it was already a vector type, using llList2String will cause the decimal values to be truncated to six decimal places.
In any string representation of a vector such as llList2String(src, index), or (string) llList2Vector (src, index), spaces are automatically added after the commas. When received by a listen, make sure NOT to parse by spaces.
