QuaternionAlgebra
ECMAScript modules for exactly manipulating quaternions of which coefficients are numbers of the form (p / q)sqrt(b), where p is an integer, q is a positive (non-zero) integer, and b is a positive, square-free integer.
Installation
npm install @kkitahara/quaternion-algebra @kkitahara/real-algebra
Examples
import { ExactRealAlgebra as RealAlgebra } from '@kkitahara/real-algebra'
import { QuaternionAlgebra } from '@kkitahara/quaternion-algebra'
let r = new RealAlgebra()
let h = new QuaternionAlgebra(r)
let q1, q2, q3
Generate a new quaternion
q1 = h.$(1, 2, 3, 4)
q1.toString() // '1 + i(2) + j(3) + k(4)'
q1 = h.$(0, 0, 0, r.$(1, 2, 5))
q1.toString() // 'k((1 / 2)sqrt(5))'
Real and imaginary parts
q1 = h.$(1, 2, 3, 4)
q1.re.toString() // '1'
q1.im instanceof Array // true
q1.im[0].toString() // '2'
q1.im[1].toString() // '3'
q1.im[2].toString() // '4'
