3* Name:
4* palDeuler
5
6* Purpose:
7* Form a rotation matrix from the Euler angles
8
9* Language:
10* Starlink ANSI C
11
12* Type of Module:
13* Library routine
14
15* Invocation:
16* void palDeuler ( const char *order, double phi, double theta, double psi,
17* double rmat[3][3] );
18
19* Arguments:
20* order = const char[] (Given)
21* Specifies about which axes the rotation occurs
22* phi = double (Given)
23* 1st rotation (radians)
24* theta = double (Given)
25* 2nd rotation (radians)
26* psi = double (Given)
27* 3rd rotation (radians)
28* rmat = double[3][3] (Given & Returned)
29* Rotation matrix
30
31* Description:
32* A rotation is positive when the reference frame rotates
33* anticlockwise as seen looking towards the origin from the
34* positive region of the specified axis.
35*
36* The characters of ORDER define which axes the three successive
37* rotations are about. A typical value is 'ZXZ', indicating that
38* RMAT is to become the direction cosine matrix corresponding to
39* rotations of the reference frame through PHI radians about the
40* old Z-axis, followed by THETA radians about the resulting X-axis,
41* then PSI radians about the resulting Z-axis.
42*
43* The axis names can be any of the following, in any order or
44* combination: X, Y, Z, uppercase or lowercase, 1, 2, 3. Normal
45* axis labelling/numbering conventions apply; the xyz (=123)
46* triad is right-handed. Thus, the 'ZXZ' example given above
47* could be written 'zxz' or '313' (or even 'ZxZ' or '3xZ'). ORDER
48* is terminated by length or by the first unrecognized character.
49*
50* Fewer than three rotations are acceptable, in which case the later
51* angle arguments are ignored. If all rotations are zero, the
52* identity matrix is produced.
