Sample Code

################### Get magnitude

# import Mathutils

import Mathutils

# create a vector

vect1 = Mathutils.Vector(1.0, 0.0, 0.0)

# get magnitude

vectMag = vect1.magnitude

################### Set magnitude

# import Mathutils

import Mathutils

# create a vector

vect1 = Mathutils.Vector(1.0, 0.0, 0.0)

# set magnitude

vect1.magnitude = 2.0

The Blender Game engine uses the Python programming language to extent the capabilities of the game engine. The Python programming language is open source and free to use, even for commercial products. Python is a multi-platform programing language that runs on Windows, Linux/Unix and Mac OS X operating systems. A general-purpose programming language, Python is a high-level, dynamic, object-oriented language that beginners find easy to learn.
