"""Homogeneous Transformation Matrices and Quaternions.

A library for calculating 4x4 matrices for translating, rotating, reflecting,
scaling, shearing, projecting, orthogonalizing, and superimposing arrays of
3D homogeneous coordinates as well as for converting between rotation matrices,
Euler angles, and quaternions. Also includes an Arcball control object and
functions to decompose transformation matrices.

  `Christoph Gohlke <http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/>`__,

:Version: 20090418

Requirements
------------

* `Python 2.6 <http://www.python.org>`__
* `Numpy 1.3 <http://numpy.scipy.org>`__
* `transformations.c 20090418 <http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/>`__
  (optional implementation of some functions in C)

Notes
-----

Matrices (M) can be inverted using numpy.linalg.inv(M), concatenated using
numpy.dot(M0, M1), or used to transform homogeneous coordinates (v) using
numpy.dot(M, v) for shape (4, \*) "point of arrays", respectively
numpy.dot(v, M.T) for shape (\*, 4) "array of points".

Calculations are carried out with numpy.float64 precision.

This Python implementation is not optimized for speed.

Vector, point, quaternion, and matrix function arguments are expected to be
"array like", i.e. tuple, list, or numpy arrays.

Return types are numpy arrays unless specified otherwise.

Angles are in radians unless specified otherwise.

Quaternions ix+jy+kz+w are represented as [x, y, z, w].

Use the transpose of transformation matrices for OpenGL glMultMatrixd().

A triple of Euler angles can be applied/interpreted in 24 ways, which can
be specified using a 4 character string or encoded 4-tuple:

  *Axes 4-string*: e.g. 'sxyz' or 'ryxy'

  - first character : rotations are applied to 's'tatic or 'r'otating frame
  - remaining characters : successive rotation axis 'x', 'y', or 'z'

  *Axes 4-tuple*: e.g. (0, 0, 0, 0) or (1, 1, 1, 1)

  - inner axis: code of axis ('x':0, 'y':1, 'z':2) of rightmost matrix.
  - parity : even (0) if inner axis 'x' is followed by 'y', 'y' is followed
    by 'z', or 'z' is followed by 'x'. Otherwise odd (1).
  - repetition : first and last axis are same (1) or different (0).
  - frame : rotations are applied to static (0) or rotating (1) frame.
