Vector Product Aesthetics The Beauty: Inner Product Think back for a minute to your first Linear Algebra course: Remember how nice inner products were to compute? Try to think of how to do it off the top of your head. If it’s a bit blurry: it’s just taking each component of the vectors, multiplying them and adding all the results: $$\mathbf{a \cdot b} = \sum_{i=0}^{N} a_i b_i$$ Calculating it gives you a scalar that says something about the angle between the two....
