84: 74: 53: 210:. In general, a coordinate system for a Euclidean space is not unique any more than an orthogonal basis is unique. Hence, a standard basis (in the sense of this article) is only defined in terms of a specified Cartesian coordinate system, and does not exist for the general (coordinate-independent) Euclidean space. The article will have to be reworded with this in mind; I'm not sure whether I will do this. — 22: 182:
I added a section in which I explaied that a standard basis is an ordered and orthonormal basis, but not necessarily vice versa. This can be deduced from the definition given in the introduction. So, it is a property, and I prefer to keep it separated from the definition (provided in the

Well at least we could add an example matrix. I don't have much ideas. That's why I asked. ...Terribly sorry about the wrong edit. I didn't know. Thanks for correcting.
369:. Since this is actually a static 2D picture, it's all too easy for a puny human brain to misinterpret that and thus perceive those two vectors as intersecting, and 249: 437: 130: 255:
Sentence needs rephrasing or clarification. It's very poor and hard to understand. To me at least. I had to read it five times although it's very simple.

In terms of 3D visualization, the vector diagram 3D_Vector.svg can be a little confusing at first (it was for me) regarding the fact that vector
