This web page provides a description of the Gram-Schmidt process for an inner product space, then gives an example in \(\mathbf{R}^3\). There is a link to a quiz page, but that may be intended for HMC students and did not work for this reviewer.

General theory, followed by special case in \(\mathbf{R}^3\), followed by a quiz (which I cannot access).
