Are you actually using the matrix transformations for real-world problems? I remember learning them in high school and thinking it was a waste of time.
I think I must have been using them in signal processing? I've just got this vague memory of 4x4 boxes
I was surprised to discover it's now a GSCE topic?
Nothing real world, but I'm interested in getting a hardware floating point chip to do 3D transforms, looks like is going to take forever because it's borderline kinda too much for my brain/attention span
"it's borderline kinda too much for my brain/attention span"
I know how you feel. From personal experience, I bet you are really good at other things though; Things that don't come naturally to a lot of number smashers. At least that's what I tell myself.
To get through matricies, I wrote a program on my TI-82+ that did the math and showed the work that I needed to copy down.
3D work. You an artist? Or for 3D printing?
I guess everyone is good at stuff they practice at for a few years
the 3D stuff is for an 8 bit retro hardware project, I was wondering how capable a Z80 computer would be if it was scaled up (more cores, retro FPUs etc)
