#include <xsi_quaternionf.h>

Class Description

Implementation of a float quaternion q=a+bi+cj+dk. This class is typically used for implementing custom ICE nodes.

A quaternion is often noted q=(s,v) where s is a scalar and v is a 3D vector, or either noted q=(W,X,Y,Z), where W, X, Y and Z are scalar, and X, Y and Z are the components of vector v in previous notation.
