Summary

Sequences - data structure with numbered elements
Membership - whether a value can be found in a sequence
Methods - like functions but are tied to a specific value
Vectors   
                        =                    ||V|| =√(12²+(-5²))
Vectors are split into two values:
  1. magnitude - the length of the vector 
  2. direction - the direction of the vector 
magnitude is expressed as ||V||  - V stands for vector, so the magnitude of vector [12 -5] would be written ||12 -5||
magnitude =           ||V|| =√(a²+b²)
= V=√(12²+(-5²))

Operator precedence

Taken from cgSultra, useful page I found detailing key fundamental concepts of MEL scripting. the image below gives clear representation to the order of precedene an operator takes:


The following shows order of operator precedence in MEL. Operator in same row has equal precedence. Left most operator is evaluated first, if a statement has more then one operators of equal precedence.

Yellow

dir. Neill Blomkamp

Short directed by District 9's Neil Blomkamp. Originally a competition brief set by Addidas (the theme being about emotional response to different colours). It has a really slick cinematic quality and seamlessly integrated cg effects.
