Grassmann–Cayley algebra

Grassmann–Cayley algebra is a type of math that helps us understand things that can change in unusual ways. It's very helpful for studying various kinds of shapes and motions. To understand Grassmann–Cayley algebra, we need to think about how something changes. Imagine a ball rolling across a floor. The ball is constantly changing its direction, moving faster and slower, and turning in new directions. This kind of movement is tough to describe in ordinary math, but it's a lot easier if we use Grassmann–Cayley algebra. This type of math helps us to explain how something changes direction and speed, and how it can move in different directions and speeds at the same time.
