             Summary: new Quaternion class added in complex package
                 Key: MATH-863
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-863
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 3.1
            Reporter: Julien Anxionnat


This patch provides a new class for the mathematical object "Quaternion" in the 
complex package.

This quaternion is considered as a mathematical object (the Hamilton's 
hypercomplex number).
Note that it's not a rotation quaternion which has to be a quaternion of norm 
one. Although this feature could be used for a getter in the Rotation class.

This patch provides also some improvements in Precision class : a "double 
comparison epsilon" and a method to compute relative comparison.

(Please, note that's it's my first contribution, and I apologize in advance for 
my mistakes…)
