-   fromEuler(  
        out: [quat](https://docs.maptiler.com/sdk-js/api-reference/types/Externals.quat/),  
        x: number,  
        y: number,  
        z: number,  
        order?: "xyz" | "xzy" | "yxz" | "yzx" | "zxy" | "zyx",  
    ): [quat](https://docs.maptiler.com/sdk-js/api-reference/types/Externals.quat/)[](#fromeuler)
    
    Creates a quaternion from the given euler angle x, y, z using the provided intrinsic order for the conversion.
