C++: Implement Quaternion Multiplication with Eigen Library

**Problem: **I’m using Eigen::Quaterniond, the built in Quaternion structure for the Eigen library. Unfortunately, it looks like the standard * operator performs normal multiplication, not the special quaternion multiplication required by an actual quaternion. How can I implement the special function to multiply a quaternion by a quaternion?

**Solution: **First, notice that your quaternion is composed of two parts – a scalar and a vector. With Eigen::Quaterniond, you can access these parts with myQuaternion.w() and myQuaternion.vec() respectively.

According to Wikipedia, the formula for multiplying a quaternion by a quaternion is as follows:

So, to implement this in C++, you might write something like this:
