SLA_DSEPV - Angle Between 2 Vectors
ACTION:
Angle between two vectors (double precision).
CALL:
D = sla_DSEPV (V1, V2)
GIVEN:
V1
D(3)
first vector
V2
D(3)
second vector
RETURNED:
sla_DSEPV
D
angle between V1 and V2 in radians
NOTES:
1.
There is no requirement for either vector to be of unit length.
2.
If either vector is null, zero is returned.
3.
The result is always positive.
