What's a quaternion rotation?

Viewed 26819

Is quaternion rotation just a vector with X,Y,Z which the object will rotate towards, and a roll which turns the object on its axis?

Is it that simple?

Meaning if you have X=0, Z=0 and Y=1 the object will face upwards?
And if you have Y=0, Z=0 and X=1 the object will face to the right?

(assuming X right, Y up and Z depth)
