# Routine Descriptions

## GET_QUATERNION[1]

[Next Routine] [List of Routines]

    FUNCTION:  crossp_trans(a,b)
    INPUT:
     a,b:  real(3,n) vector arrays dimension (3,n) or (3)
    PURPOSE:
     performs cross product on arrays
    CREATED BY:
     Davin Larson

(See projects/maven/sep/get_quaternion.pro)

## GET_QUATERNION[2]

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]

     function get_quaternion(v1,new_v1)
     Purpose: Returns the quaternion that provides the smallest angle rotation that transforms V1 into V1_prime.
          If V1_prime is not provided it is assumed to be [0,0,1]
          Use QUATERNION_ROTATION to perform the rotaton.

## TIME_NIST

[Previous Routine] [List of Routines]

    Function:  TIME_NIST
    Purpose:  Returns NIST corrected system time (systime(1))
        Correction is determined from NIST.  (Requires internet connection).
        Typical computer clocks are highly variable often differing by a few seconds (or more) from UTC.
        This routine will return a time that is typically accurate to a few 10s of milliseconds.
        Time offsets are determined no more than once per hour (unless FORCETIME keyword is used)
