Hello,
If you want a mathematical answer, be clear that it is what you want. There is not even a sentence in your post!!
Given a rational p/q you can define its height to be max(log(|p|), log(|q|)). And given a vector, you can define its height as the maximum of the heights of its entries...
sage: A = AffineSpace(2,QQ)
sage: A((1/3,2/5))
(1/3, 2/5)
sage: A((1/3,2/5)).global_height()
1.60943791243410
sage: log(5.)
1.60943791243410
The definition extends to number fields.

thank you very much! it is the same with ellipitic curve!

What is your question ?! If you want an answer, you should be more precise.
I only know ellipitic curve'point has a height,what meanings AffineSpace'point height?
