Quaternions using Clifford algebras

Converting quaternions to and from Clifford objects is not part of the package but functionality and a short discussion is included in inst/quaternion_clifford.Rmd.

Details

Given a quaternion $a + b i + c j + d k$ , one may identify $i$ with $- e_{12}$ , $j$ with $- e_{13}$ , and $k$ with $- e_{23}$ (the constant term is of course $e_{0}$ ).

Note

A different mapping, from the quaternions to $Cl (0, 2)$ is given at signature.Rd.
