    The author uses the vectors of the standard real Clifford algebra over \(\mathbb{R}^n\) to represent the three well-known Frenet formulas describing the curvature and torsion of a two-dimensional surface in \(n\)-dimensional real space. However, he does not generalize the Frenet formulas for a higher-dimensional surface in \(n\)-dimensional real space.
