SVG是一种矢量图格式，是Scalable Vector Graphics三个单词的首字母缩写。在xml文件中的标签是，画出的图形可以像一般的图片资源使用，例子如下：

<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    android:height="24dp"

    android:viewportHeight="200.0"

    android:viewportWidth="200.0"

    android:width="24dp">

画出的图形为：

显而易见重点是pathData里面的大串数字。
一些基本语法：
M：move to 移动绘制点，作用相当于把画笔落在哪一点。
L：line to 直线，就是一条直线，注意，只是直线，直线是没有宽度的，所以你什么也看不到。
Z：close 闭合，嗯，就是把图封闭起来。
C：cubic bezier 三次贝塞尔曲线
Q：quatratic bezier 二次贝塞尔曲线
A：ellipse 圆弧

每个命令都有大小写形式，大写代表后面的参数是绝对坐标，小写表示相对坐标，相对于上一个点的位置。参数之间用空格或逗号隔开。
命令详解：

M (x y) 移动到x,y

L (x y) 直线连到x,y，还有简化命令H(x) 水平连接、V(y)垂直连接

Z，没有参数，连接起点和终点

C(x1 y1 x2 y2 x y)，控制点x1,y1 x2,y2，终点x,y

Q(x1 y1 x y)，控制点x1,y1，终点x,y

A(rx ry x-axis-rotation large-arc-flag sweep-flag x y)

rx ry 椭圆半径

x-axis-rotation x轴旋转角度

large-arc-flag 为0时表示取小弧度，1时取大弧度

sweep-flag 0取逆时针方向，1取顺时针方向
