You can do 3D rotation using just sin and cos. Ok, so you might have to know how to do matrix multiplication, but if you specifically only want 3D rotation, then someone can always expand it out. What i'm saying is its not how much maths you know, its how you think logically and how you try and apply methods to solve problems.

Whoever suggested taking an everyday object and thinking about how youd script it is right, but I feel the most useful suggestion in this thread is to pick a new command, make a test script so that you can learn how to use it backwards, then pick a new command and repeat. By taking things one step at a time, and by focussing on just one new command at a time, you'll learn things pretty quickly.
