- It is similar to [Basis], which implements matrix representation of rotations, and can be parametrized using both an axis-angle pair or Euler angles. But due to its compactness and the way it is stored in memory, certain operations (obtaining axis-angle and performing SLERP, in particular) are more efficient and robust against floating-point errors.

- [b]Note:[/b] If you just want to wrap between 0 and [code]n[/code] (where [code]n[/code] is a positive integer value), it is better for performance to use the modulo operator like [code]number % n[/code].
- [code]wrapi[/code] is more flexible than using the modulo approach by giving the user a simple control over the minimum value. It also fully supports negative numbers, e.g.
[codeblock]
# result is -2
var result = wrapi(-6, -5, -1)
