did you follow the course in the learning center?
fromt the standard library Documentation:
evVertexPoint (context is Context, arg is map) returns Vector
Vector type
A
Vectoris a non-empty array. It should contain numbers or lengths.Operators
+,-,*, and/are overloaded for vectors, and other operations such as dot product are available. If a vector does not contain numbers or lengths, operations that assume number-like properties may fail.vector (x, y, z) returns Vector
Construct a 3-dimensional vector.
reading through the documentation you should figure out that you need the first entry from the array returned by evVertexPoint.
