<description><![CDATA[
Calculates linear interpolation from one vector to another vector.  (Just like regular <b>lerp()</b>, but for vectors.)<br/>
Note that there is one <em>static</em> version of this method, and two <em>non-static</em> versions.  The static version, <b>lerp(v1, v2, amt)</b> is given the two vectors to interpolate and returns a new PVector object.  The static version is used by referencing the PVector class directly.  (See the middle example above.)  The non-static versions, <b>lerp(v, amt)</b> and <b>lerp(x, y, z, amt)</b>, do not return a new PVector, but transform the values of the PVector on which they are called.  These non-static versions function the same way, but the former takes another vector as input, while the latter takes three float values.  (See the top and bottom examples above, respectively.)
