Before i get to the point, lets have a look at a different api first, cuda. Now i am translating this code to qt without using glm but qt does not have the equal operator overcharge so i had to do it in two steps.
This library allows you to use vectors and matrices the same way as in glsl opengl shader language and, most important of all, the same is true for all the math functions. In this demo we will not be doing any blending so we will neglect the alpha value. The ship stays where it is and the engines move the universe around it. The data type bvec3 is used for boolean vectors with three components. The center of the object is often 0, 0, 0 and each of the vectors is usualy somgething close to zero.

Then, it creates a 4 x 4 view matrix by using the glmlookat function. Unlike other popular graphics apis like directx, opengl is platform agnostic meaning that you can write an opengl application on one platform and the same opengl program can be compiled and run on another platform. A vec3 represents a 3d vector type that can be used to store points, vector, normals or even colors. This works in a similar fashion to the old glulookat function.
