Vcross()

vcross(<vector>,<vector>[,<delim>][,<output delim>])

Returns the cross product of two vectors. The cross product of two vectors is a vector.

                         | a b c |
 (a,b,c) X (d,e,f) = det | d e f | = i(bf-ce) + j(cd-af) + k(ae-bd)
                         | i j k |

 where i, j, and k are taken as unit vectors in Cartesian space.

Example
