Getting Started

To get started with the HexaEngine Math library, follow these steps:

1. Install the NuGet package:

   dotnet add package Hexa.NET.Math

   Full version X.X.X-full vs minimal verions X.X.X-minimal, make sure to enable allow pre-releases in Visual Studio to see them.

2. Include the library in your project:

   using Hexa.NET.Mathematics;

3. Utilize the math functions:

   MathUtil.XXX();

4. Perform geometric calculations:

   var sphere = new BoundingSphere(new Vector3(0, 0, 0), 1.0f);
   var box = new BoundingBox(new Vector3(-1, -1, -1), new Vector3(1, 1, 1));

5. Generate noise:

   var noiseValue = PerlinNoise.Noise(0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f);

6. Work with colors:

   var color = Color.FromRGBA(0xFFAABBCC);

Minimal vs Full Version

• Minimal Version: Contains essential math functions and utilities.
• Full Version: Includes additional features such as shadow mapping functions and the Transform class.
