SceneGraph Interviewee Task, C#

SceneGraph Interviewee Task

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

// In this test, a typical scene graph is given.
// The scene graph contains a game object and a bounding box.
// The game object is the root of a hierarchy.
// Every game object can have an arbitrary number of game objects as its children
// while every child also has a reference to its parent (except for the root which does not have a parent).
// The classes for the bounding box, the scene graph and the game objects can all be found in the file GameObject.cs
// Every game object contains vertices in a list.
// Furthermore, every game object has a matrix which transforms it relative to the parent.

// Two simple classes for vectors and matrices are also given.
// Examples of how to use them are shown in the main function

// Task 1: Write a function that takes a game object and computes its AABB. 
// The AABB is based on the vertices which have to be transformed by the game object's transform.
// The game object already has a m_BoundingBox member where the AABB shall be stored.

// Task 2: Compute the AABB for the whole scene graph that is created in the first line of the main function.
// The scene graph also containts a m_BoundingBox member to store it.
// The AABB has to enclose all children (with their vertices) in the hierarchy.
// The function from Task 1 can be used here.
