A vector is really a direction and a length (scalar), vlength just returns
the length.

In POV however, a vector is represented as a point in space by XYZ
coordinates, the direction and length aren't very obvious (to most). The
direction is considered the direction from the origin (0,0,0) to the vector
point, and the length of the vector is the length from the origin to vector
point. I think vlength(x,y,z) is just sqrt(x*x+y*y+z*z).

If I'm wrong someone please correct me.
