Re: [Phys-l] unit vector notation

I use:
x_hat, y_hat, z_hat
I find it to be less confusing to the students. The old version of their calculus text used i_hat, j_hat, and k_hat; however, the last two editions are using notation consistent to mine (which also helps them with continuity and understanding).
