Question about vectors

GNU Radio
1

Vectors have been bothering me for a while. It seems that a vector is no
different than a stream… Particular blocks just interpret the stream
by taking every “n” numbers to be a vector?

If vectors are different, how would a block that expects a stream input
handle a vector input? And vice-versa?

Thanks,

Yes.

You could think of a stream of X as a stream of vectors of X of
length 1.

If it’s still not clear, please ask again.
