This is why it's so hard to get a job. OK, here goes:

A pure virtual method is used as a common interface, so that derived classes can override these with their own implementation.

Polymorphism is where several different objects can fill a role with their own implementation.

A static function can't be referenced outside if the file where it's declared. The static keyword also blocks the extern keyword from referencing that function.

Static functions as described above, and static variables declared in a namespace (usually the global namespace) cannot be referenced from outside of the file where they're declared. Also, in this instance the static keyword blocks the extern keyword. Static variables can also exist inside functions. In this case, they persist for the duration of the program's execution. The final type of static are static members, which are declared as part of a class. These can be either methods or variables, and can be used without an object of that class. However, they cannot reference a non-static member.

I'm not certain, but I think that a table of function pointers are created in the base class, which can be altered by the derived class.

There is usually a reserved bit, which indicates if the rest of the data is above or below 0.

I don't know what the dot product is.

I don't know what the cross product is.

Quarternions are mathematical structures used to rotate objects in 3 dimensional space.

I don't know how they're implemented, but I'm pretty sure that they represent a spiral in 4 dimensions. They're used in games for rotating things in 3D, including rigging joints... that's all I can think of.

You need a scout?
