What's the difference between generalize and vector?

Generalize


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To bring under a genus or under genera; to view in relation to a genus or to genera.
  • (v. t.) To apply to other genera or classes; to use with a more extensive application; to extend so as to include all special cases; to make universal in application, as a formula or rule.
  • (v. t.) To derive or deduce (a general conception, or a general principle) from particulars.
  • (v. i.) To form into a genus; to view objects in their relations to a genus or class; to take general or comprehensive views.

Vector


Definition:

  • (n.) Same as Radius vector.
  • (n.) A directed quantity, as a straight line, a force, or a velocity. Vectors are said to be equal when their directions are the same their magnitudes equal. Cf. Scalar.
