    In computer graphics, swizzles are a class of operations that transform vectors by rearranging components. [1] Swizzles can also project from a vector of one dimensionality to a vector of another dimensionality, such as taking a three-dimensional vector and creating a two-dimensional or five-dimensional vector using components from the original vector.
