jtbell said:"Direction" and "orientation" mean the same thing in this context.
Hm, in my language, by mentioning 'direction', we refer to the straight line on which the vector is 'placed'. My fault, direct translation. But, how do you call that 'direction' then? (Assuming we know what magnitude means, and assuming when you say, for example, 'direction north', you mean that the 'arrow' is pointed north.)
