Description

This class represent a standard 3x3 matrix. This class provides access to RLPy's internal 3x3 matrix operators and related functions. iClone uses row-major order where consecutive elements of a row reside next to each other, and the data is read from left to right, top to bottom, in a vertical zig-zag:

[3, 4, 5]
[6, 7, 8]
