Abstract

We have learned that readers of the work of Hestenes and Sobzyk [1, Chap. 8] and a late article of Doran et al. [2] section IV may have difficulties to understand the subject and practitioners have difficulties to try the equations in certain applications. For this reason, this chapter reviews concepts and equations most of them introduced by Hestenes and Sobzyk [1, Chap. 8] and the article of Doran et al. [2, Sect. IV]. This chapter is written in a clear manner for readers interested in applications in computer science and engineering. The explained equations will be required to understand advanced applications in next chapters.
