Returns the dot product of two vectors

A dot product can be represented by multiplying the corresponding values together and then summing the results.

More information on dot products can be found at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_product]

Code representation:
local a = vector.new(1, 2, 3)
local b = vector.new(-1, 2, 5)

local c = ((a.x * b.x) + (a.y * b.y) + (a.z * b.z))
--c = 18

Code example:
local a = vector.new(1, 2, 3)
local b = vector.new(4, 5, 6)

local c = a:dot(b)

print(c)
--32
