An affine space is a geometric structure that generalizes the idea of a vector space by allowing translation without a fixed origin. It can be thought of as a set of points along with a vector space that describes how to move from one point to another. Here are some key features and concepts related to affine spaces: 1. **Points and Vectors**: In an affine space, there are two distinct types of entities: points and vectors.
