fix heading definition #46

Closed mcfogarty closed 5 years ago

mcfogarty commented 5 years ago

Be sure to update the documentation to give better definitions of pitch, roll, and heading. Heading should be direction of x axis relative to north, positive clockwise. Pitch is positive when z is up and x pitches up. Roll follows right hand rule.

Output for heading is currently -180 to +180. Suggest changing it to 0-360 and making this consistent throughout DOLfYN.

Re: previous comment, I edited the function to provide heading in range 0-360

Closing this in favor of #50.
