User:Jim.belk/Draft:Column vector

In linear algebra, a column vector is a matrix with a single column:
 * $$\textbf{x} = \begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ x_2 \\ \vdots \\ x_m \end{bmatrix}$$

Though a column vector can be interpreted as a spatial vector with magnitude and direction, it Column vectors are often referred to as The set (mathematics) of all column vectors having n components is the Euclidean space Rn. This is the simplest example of a vector space.
