In physics, a scalar field is a region in space such that each point in the space a number can be assigned. Scalar quantities are comparable only when they have the same physical dimensions. This appears to be an oversight, since pointers to members behave much more like scalars than like nonscalars. When we calculate the scalar product of two vectors the result, as the name suggests is a scalar, rather than a vector. Scalar is a free, open source authoring and publishing platform thats designed to make it easy for authors to write longform, borndigital scholarship online. For purposes of this discussion, lets assume that a scalar is a single number, rather than a collection of numbers for example the result of a sql query that returns a number instead of a tuple, as does the executescalar method in the sqlcommand class, which returns the value of the first column of the first row in the result. The dot is the symbol for the scalar product, and is the reason why the scalar product is also known as the dot product.
