rotationmat3D(r,Axis)

function R= rotationmat3D(r,Axis)
%function R= rotationmat3D(radians,Axis)
%
% creates a rotation matrix such that R * x 
% operates on x by rotating x around the origin r radians around line
% connecting the origin to the point "Axis"
%
% example:
% rotate around a random direction a random amount and then back
% the result should be an Identity matrix
%
%r = rand(4,1);
%rotationmat3D(r(1),[r(2),r(3),r(4)]) * rotationmat3D(-r(1),[r(2),r(3),r(4)])
%
% example2: 
% rotate around z axis 45 degrees
% Rtest = rotationmat3D(pi/4,[0 0 1])
