For interpolating 3D rotations smoothly, EULER angle interpolation suffers from which classical problem?

AAlways rotating the long way around
BGimbal lock at certain orientations
CFloating-point overflow at 360°
DDiscrete jumps at zero rotation
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Gimbal lock at certain orientations
Standard CG textbooks: Euler interpolation can lose a degree of freedom (gimbal lock) when axes align. Quaternions avoid this.
