Investigate error unit conversion #6

Closed noahfranz13 closed 1 week ago

Right now, when getPhot is called in otter.io.Otter it doesn't look like the errors are being converted to the requested units appropriately. I'm not really sure what's going on with it but it definitely needs further investigation.

Fixed by converting the flux errors using the formula

$$\sigma_X \approx X \times \frac{\sigma_Y}{Y}$$

Where X is the converted quantity and Y is the original quantity.

I think this is fixed for good now!
