My Lani project has a rotation matrix that takes the parameters x, y, z.
The first thing it does is determine what rotation parameters are 0. There
are 7 cases:
x only
y only
z only
x and y
x and z
y and z
x, y, and z
This is for speed.
It then performs the math. The cos/sin values are stored in an array,
instead of calling the functions. This is for speed.
I tried to eliminate all of the loops for speed. The .5 version still has
some loops for x, y, and z. The .53 version doesn't have any loops, but I
haven't tested the math to make sure that it works. I know .5 works.
I think I added a rotation point to the .53 version that I haven't tested,
so just stay away from the .53 version
Again, the code is at http://www.cc.utah.edu/~jer29950/lani/
The rotation function is in the LaniTargets.java file.
