+
+ Direction cosines to spherical coordinates (single precision)
+
+ Given:
+ V r(3) x,y,z vector
+
+ Returned:
+ A,B r spherical coordinates in radians
+
+ The spherical coordinates are longitude (+ve anticlockwise
+ looking from the +ve latitude pole) and latitude. The
+ Cartesian coordinates are right handed, with the x axis
+ at zero longitude and latitude, and the z axis at the
+ +ve latitude pole.
+
+ If V is null, zero A and B are returned.
+ At either pole, zero A is returned.
