Need to implement improvement algorithm for state vector #2

Closed jblake95 closed 5 years ago

Curtis' "Orbital Mechanics for Engineering Students" also presents an algorithm for improving the state vector that is outputted by the Gauss method. It'll be worth implementing this in Python if there's time.

Improvement algorithm appears to be working with the example cases from the textbook. Now need to implement a parsing procedure in order to test it on our dataset.
