Distribution Perl6-Math-Quaternion Module Math::Quaternion Class Math::Quaternion This distribution implements an OO class for Quaternions, which are the simplest of the hyper-complex numbers. It adds the operators needed for basic math on the Qs, and should be a good base class for future modules to support the other hyper-complex numbers. RECOMMENDATIONS I intend this module to be a high-quality example of Perl 6 numeric OO, usable as a reference for future module authors. WARNINGS This module is a mostly-from-scratch re-implementation of Quaternions; its API differs from the excellent Perl 5 Math::Quaternion module.
