Definition
The sum of two quaternions $\mathbf x_1 = a_1 \mathbf 1 + b_1 \mathbf i + c_1 \mathbf j + d_1 \mathbf k$ and $\mathbf x_2 = a_2 \mathbf 1 + b_2 \mathbf i + c_2 \mathbf j + d_2 \mathbf k$ is defined as:


 * $\mathbf x_1 + \mathbf x_2 := \left({a_1 + a_2}\right) \mathbf 1 + \left({b_1 + b_2}\right) \mathbf i + \left({c_1 + c_2}\right) \mathbf j + \left({d_1 + d_2}\right) \mathbf k$
