This isn't as scary as it looks. Put your left finger on the a, and your right finger on the x. This is _ax_. Move your left finger to the next number (b), and your right finger to the next number (y). You've got _by_. Once again: _cz_. Once again: _dw_. ax + by + cz + dw. You've got your new x! Do the same for each line, and you'll get your new (x,y,z,w) vector.

Now this is quite boring to compute, an we will do this often, so let's ask the computer to do it instead.

So, how does this translate to code?

## Rotation matrices

These are quite complicated. I'll skip the details here, as it's not important to know their exact layout for everyday use. For more information, please have a look to the [Matrices and Quaternions FAQ]({{site.baseurl}}/assets/faq_quaternions/index.html) (popular resource, probably available in your language as well). You can also have a look at the [Rotations tutorials]({{site.baseurl}}/intermediate-tutorials/tutorial-17-quaternions)
