/** \class Quaternion
  *
  * \brief The quaternion class used to represent 3D orientations and rotations
  *
  * \param _Scalar the scalar type, i.e., the type of the coefficients
  *
  * This class represents a quaternion that is a convenient representation of
  * orientations and rotations of objects in three dimensions. Compared to other
  * representations like Euler angles or 3x3 matrices, quatertions offer the
  * following advantages:
  *   - compact storage (4 scalars)
  *   - efficient to compose (28 flops),
  *   - stable spherical interpolation
  *
  * \sa  class AngleAxis, class EulerAngles, class Transform
