Most of the time, you will be dealing with the vecmath library, which is responsible for basic linear algebra types, such as vectors, points, and linear transformations. While we encourage you to implement all the modules in a common framework, the solutions for each module should be independent. Were upgrading the acm dl, and would like your input.
