pointVector was defined as a column vector in the previous step. And the definition of post-multiply is:
So that's That's not mathematically possible. Matrix multiplication produces a new matrix whose elements are the inner products of the left-hand matrix's rows with the right-hand's columns; so for C = A · B A 4-element column vector multiplied by a 4x4 matrix means calculating the dot product of a 1-element row with a 4-element column. There's no way to do it. The text should say
or
or it should construct pointVector as a row vector and post-multiply by the transpose of the matrix. I've read and re-read the spec, and I can't see I've got this wrong this time. But I've not done a PR in case my eyes have swizzled the words again. Activity
