Current State:
The program is currently able to graph the function projected into 3 dimensions, and it is able to rotate in the XW, YW, and ZW planes. The four dimensionsion variable is also represented by the color of the graph. I have gotten a wire mesh working so teh graph can be drawn as a mesh of connectect points, rather than a surfave. The rotations have also been set to constantly change over time. The mapping of all the different commands onto the buttons of the wand has been worked out with all three rotations, swapping to and from wireframe, and resetting all having their own buttons on the wand. The current mapping is such that the rotations in the XW, YW, and ZW planes are toggled with buttons 0, 1, and 2 respectively, button 4 toggles whether the display is a surface or a wireframe, and button 5 resets the view. Button 3 does nothing. The code has been run in the Cube.

One of the features that is currently only partially implemented is the axes. I plan to have colored lines display the rotated axes to make the transformations more easily visible to the user. X will be red, Y will be green, Z will be blue and W will be white. All 4 are currently in the code, but only the X axis rotates succesfully despite the fact that they all should according to the code. This also means that the W axis isn't actually ever displayed. The last thing from the design that still needs implementing is a menu system controlled with a billboard so the user is able to alter the function that is displayed while the program is running.
