Matrix and Transformation
Our Math's lecturer walked us through the basics of Matrices and transformation. The Maths component is something I'm really interested in learning about although I found this lecture quite frustrating for a number of outside reasons. It takes a lot of concentration to understand our Maths lecturer as English is not his first language. This of course doesn't bother me, but that in combination with the fact that half of the class are not interested in maths means that it slowly gets a bit noisy. Which only makes it more difficult to understand. I briefly considered telling my class to shut up or leave I was so annoyed, although this might not have gone down very well. The concepts that we covered were not even difficult and I was familiar with them, and as soon as it seemed we were about to move to the next and more interesting level (rotational transformation of a matrix) it was time to vacate the lecture theatre.
We did however reconvene in another room but did not go back to rotational transformation but a pile of exercises creating golden shapes. This I found tedious but stayed in case we suddenly covered new ground.
I'll look up rotational transformation myself, If I'm right, this is an incredibly interesting topic and one some of my class mates (if anyone in the class reads this... you do??) apparently interested in building 3D games in the future would do well to try to understand, as it's the basis of 3D space in those games.
