Brand new user of Home edition 10.3. I'm trying to use quaternions and when I type in <<Quaternions to load the package as stated in the "Quaternion Package" documentation - it complains that it can't find the package. Where is it and how do I get it? Thanks!
Hi David.
Please see the attached. Pdf overview and a notebook with examples. Also a simple palette. And I would say it is fully symbolic.
It would be interesting to hear your views!
Hi Hans,
Your package appears to work as advertised. Better than the WRI package. Nice work.
I wonder if you could write me at my email address on my Profile page?
Hans, do you have a notebook that illustrates the use of your quaternions package? Also, how fully symbolic is it?
Good. Now when this is cleared up: I attach a homebrewed quaternion package. It has a slightly different approach from the package included in the MMA installation
<< quaternionsHM`
Ah,...this worked. When I tried the quote from the keyboard, apparently the representation was wrong, however when I cut and pasted from your reply - (as you said :-)) it worked. Thanks!
Strange. What if you try another package, that should come with the Mathematica installation ?
<< Splines`
This is equivalent to:
Needs["Splines`"]
Thanks - even when I put the "backquote" in it failed, I also tried the double quote and the Needs[]. No luck.
Try this code below. Paste it in a notebook. It has the "backquote" after Quaternions.
