Q3Matrix4x4_SetRotate_X

You can use the Q3Matrix4x4_SetRotate_X function to configure a 4-by-4 transformation matrix that rotates objects around the x axis.

TQ3Matrix4x4 *Q3Matrix4x4_SetRotate_X (
TQ3Matrix4x4 *matrix4x4, 
float angle);

matrix4x4

A 4-by-4 matrix.

angle

The desired angle of rotation around the x coordinate axis, in radians.

DESCRIPTION

The Q3Matrix4x4_SetRotate_X function returns, as its function result and in the matrix4x4 parameter, a rotational matrix that rotates an object by the angle angle around the x axis.
