# WasmGPU.math.quat.norm

## Summary
WasmGPU.math.quat.norm returns the Euclidean norm of the input. This is the standard magnitude measure used by many geometric operations.

## Syntax
```ts
WasmGPU.math.quat.norm(q: number[]): number
const result = wgpu.math.quat.norm(q);
```

## Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `q` | `number[]` | Yes | Quaternion input as `[x, y, z, w]`. |

## Returns
`number` - Euclidean norm (magnitude) of the input.

## Type Details
```ts
type Quat = number[]; // expected length: 4 ([x, y, z, w])
```

## Example
```js
const canvas = document.querySelector("canvas");
const wgpu = await WasmGPU.create(canvas);

const q = [0, Math.sin(Math.PI / 8), 0, Math.cos(Math.PI / 8)];
const result = wgpu.math.quat.norm(q);
console.log(result);
```
