Subject: Bug in power() POD example
In the POD example for the power method, it says: my $q5 = exp(1)**( Math::Quaternion->new(pi,0,0) ); # approx (-1 0 0 0) The arguments to new() are incorrect to achieve that result. To fix the bug, just change this: (pi,0,0) to this: (0,pi,0,0) -- Thank you, Bruce Gray (Util of PerlMonks)

I don't think this is a bug: if you pass a list of three floats to new(), then the first one is implicitly zero, so new(pi,0,0) should give the same results as new(0,pi,0,0) (and did so when I tried it..(
