Clockwise?
This seems to only be defined for anticlockwise rotations. How would a clockwise rotation be described using this notation? Could I use this, for example?

$\map {r_{-\alpha} } P$

 * Well yes, and a rotation $\alpha$ clockwise is the same as a rotation $2 \pi - \alpha$ acw innit?


 * Anyone else out there think that needs to be clarified? --prime mover (talk) 05:08, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
