quadcube 1.0.0

Python bindings for `pix2vec` for converting between quadcube res15 pixel number to ecliptic unit vectors.

quadcube

Python library (written in rust) that currently provide one method pix2vec for converting between quadcube res15 pixel number to ecliptic unit vectors.

The code is a reimplementation of parts of the COBE DIRBE map binning routines provided by A.J. Banday. See the COBE Explanatory Supplement for more information.

Install

pip install quadcube
