make sure all lon/lat is right format (long1 vs long3) #13

Longitude can be between 0 - 360 (long3) and -180 - 180 (long1)

ledcoords.txt is long3 pointarray is long3 isstle calcualtion is long1 calcdist is expecting long1

I think I want this all to be in the following format

lat/lon and -180 - 180 (long1)

yes I know this is in y,x graph but then all the map plot is in row/column and it coincides with the distance calculation modules (geopy)

locations I need to check:

ledcoords.txt
mapplot functions
lightarray.py
- get closest point()
- get closest points()
- calcDist()
- ...

now I am torn to put them in x,y order.... this makes sense to read but my plot command needs to go by row which is the y. i think this wont really matter and I can always swap them later in excel/sheets
