====== Vector2 ======

Vector2 consists two floats, ''x'' and ''y''. 
Similar to Matrices, Vectors also have two methods of accessing their variables.

Namely, you can access them directly, or using the ''[]'' operator, similar to an array. 

The following example uses both methods:
<code c>
float Vector2::Dot(const Vector2& other) const {
	return asArray[0] * other.x + asArray[1] * other.y;
}
</code>

Vector2 also features the following utility functions:
  * ''Dot''
  * ''Magnitude''
  * ''MagnitudeFast'', which omits the square root function call, providing a very helpful speedboost.
  * ''Distance''
  * ''Normalize''
  * ''Angle'', returns the angle between this and another Vector2

The following utility functions return *new* Vector2 objects:
  * ''Project''
  * ''Perpendicular''
  * ''Reflection''
  * ''Clamp'', clamps the vector between a given min and a max.
