Is the displayed formula correct? The link in the singularity section (http://www.euclideanspace.com/maths/geometry/rotations/conversions/quaternionToEuler/) displays a different formula ... <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/83.171.153.247|83.171.153.247]] ([[User talk:83.171.153.247|talk]]) 18:07, 1 March 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
 
:Could this be because the article uses a left-handed rotation (as specified on the paragraph giving the matrix for x-y-z convention rotation) ? I'mt not sure, but I think there are a LOT of different ways to convert quaternions to euler angles. See http://www.cgafaq.info/wiki/Euler_angles_from_matrix for example.
:Basically, if someone knowledgeable enough could rewrite the part on conversion to discuss the various possibilities, that would be very nice. [[Special:Contributions/81.63.104.6|81.63.104.6]] ([[User talk:81.63.104.6|talk]]) 20:22, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
