# nalgebra

**nalgebra** is a linear algebra library written for Rust targeting:

* General-purpose linear algebra (still lacks a lot of features…)
* Real-time computer graphics.
* Real-time computer physics.

## Using **nalgebra**
You will need the last stable build of the [rust compiler](https://www.rust-lang.org)
and the official package manager: [cargo](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo).

Simply add the following to your `Cargo.toml` file:

```.ignore
[dependencies]
// TODO: replace the * by the latest version.
nalgebra = "*"
```


Most useful functionalities of **nalgebra** are grouped in the root module `nalgebra::`.

However, the recommended way to use **nalgebra** is to import types and traits
explicitly, and call free-functions using the `na::` prefix:

```.rust
#[macro_use]
extern crate approx; // For the macro relative_eq!
extern crate nalgebra as na;
use na::{Vector3, Rotation3};

fn main() {
    let axis  = Vector3::x_axis();
    let angle = 1.57;
    let b     = Rotation3::from_axis_angle(&axis, angle);

    relative_eq!(b.axis().unwrap(), axis);
    relative_eq!(b.angle(), angle);
}
```


## Features
**nalgebra** is meant to be a general-purpose, low-dimensional, linear algebra library, with
an optimized set of tools for computer graphics and physics. Those features include:

* A single parametrizable type `Matrix` for vectors, (square or rectangular) matrices, and slices
  with dimensions known either at compile-time (using type-level integers) or at runtime.
* Matrices and vectors with compile-time sizes are statically allocated while dynamic ones are
  allocated on the heap.
* Convenient aliases for low-dimensional matrices and vectors: `Vector1` to `Vector6` and
  `Matrix1x1` to `Matrix6x6`, including rectangular matrices like `Matrix2x5`.
* Points sizes known at compile time, and convenience aliases: `Point1` to `Point6`.
* Translation (seen as a transformation that composes by multiplication): `Translation2`,
  `Translation3`.
* Rotation matrices: `Rotation2`, `Rotation3`.
* Quaternions: `Quaternion`, `UnitQuaternion` (for 3D rotation).
* Unit complex numbers can be used for 2D rotation: `UnitComplex`.
* Algebraic entities with a norm equal to one: `Unit<T>`, e.g., `Unit<Vector3<f32>>`.
* Isometries (translation ⨯ rotation): `Isometry2`, `Isometry3`
* Similarity transformations (translation ⨯ rotation ⨯ uniform scale): `Similarity2`, `Similarity3`.
* Affine transformations stored as a homogeneous matrix: `Affine2`, `Affine3`.
* Projective (i.e. invertible) transformations stored as a homogeneous matrix: `Projective2`,
  `Projective3`.
* General transformations that does not have to be invertible, stored as a homogeneous matrix:
  `Transform2`, `Transform3`.
* 3D projections for computer graphics: `Perspective3`, `Orthographic3`.
* Matrix factorizations: `Cholesky`, `QR`, `LU`, `FullPivLU`, `SVD`, `Schur`, `Hessenberg`, `SymmetricEigen`.
* Insertion and removal of rows of columns of a matrix.
