Each gust of the clouded mood that seemed warmed by the heat of a heart flaming with anger has its counterpart in the chilly blasts that seem blown from a breast turned to ice with a sudden revulsion of feeling.
The dimension is the number of bases in the COLUMN SPACE of the matrix representing a linear function between two spaces. i.e. if you have a linear function mapping R3 --> R2 then the column space of the matrix representing this function will have dimension 2 and the nullity will be 1.
Length. In geometric measurements, length is the longest dimension of an object. In other contexts length is the measured dimension of an object. For example it is possible to cut a length of a wire which is shorter than wire thickness.
