Same as a vector in mathematics or physics. It's a property that has both magnitude and direction.
Examples include the position of an object, the displacement between two objects, the velocity of a part, etc.
One thing to note is that in mathematics, physics, and most other applications, the Z-axis is generally assigned to be the vertical axis. In ROBLOX, this is not the case. In ROBLOX, the Y-axis is vertical. |

| It's a character from "Despicable Me" who is named after the mathematical property with direction and magnitude. |
