No Basis3 or Matrix3 identity? #518

Open thorlucas opened 3 years ago

thorlucas commented 3 years ago

Why is there no way to just do Basis3::<f32>::identity()?

kvark commented 3 years ago

You can do Basis3::one() or Basis3::from_quaternion(Quaternion::one())

Thanks! I find that to be a bit of an unintuitive way to name it, no?

Yes, well, it's just that cgmath has a One trait that it tries to use everywhere.. It could have an alias method named identity in the basis3
