Maths - 4d multivector Code

complete sfmulti4d class

This class can represent a 3D rotation. The class has 4 double numbers which represent the rotation as either quaternion, axis-angle or euler number depending on the cde int/enum

The class has methods to combine with other rotations. Also many other methods, including the ability to load and save to from VRML and x3d

There are 3 versions available depending on language:

cover Clifford Algebra to Geometric Calculus: A Unified Language for Mathematics and Physics (Fundamental Theories of Physics). This book is intended for mathematicians and physicists rather than programmers, it is very theoretical. It covers the algebra and calculus of multivectors of any dimension and is not specific to 3D modelling.
