Quote - How many coordinates of the normal does each vertex have? Or do normals have coordinates?

A normal only has a direction and a length.  It doesn't have a location.  Coordinates and normal vectors share the same format of (x,y,z), but they're different entities altogether.

It was ages before I understood the difference between the two.  Hoo boy.  :lol:

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
