Vector graphics refers to a type of graphics that stores color information as well as the paths (curves and shapes) rather than using pixels to store image information (raster graphics). This means that it will retain image quality better than raster graphics, no matter how you scale it (enlarge or shrink) when it comes to designing logos, line art, and other 2D imagery.

The most common file type for vector graphics is Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG).

In programming, a vector is a scalable array (a type of array that can be resized). For example, strings in C++ would be a vector of characters/bytes.
