## Introduction

Some quick astronomical functions.

## Functions

- `dec2dms`: transfer decimal to sexagesimal deg-min-sec, for Dec
- `dec2hms`: transfer decimal to sexagesimal hour-min-sec, for RA
- `dms2dec`: transfer sexagesimal deg-min-sec to decimal, for Dec
- `hms2dec`: transfer sexagesimal hour-min-sec to decimal, for RA
- `coorddec2dms`: transfer astropy.coord.dec to deg-min-sec
- `coordra2hms`: transfer astropy.coord.ra to hour-min-sec
- `hour2str`: transfer decimal hour to hour-min-sec
- `hourangle`: computer hour angle between lst and ra
- `angle_dis`: distance between two angles, result between -180 and +180
- `distance`: distance between two sphere points
- `azalt`: az & alt for object (ra, dec) at lat, lst
- `mjd`: from y, m, d, h, s, s, tz to mjd
- `day_of_year`: day serial number in given year
- `fmst`: fast midnight sidereal time
- `mjd2`: from y, m, d, h, s, s, tz to mjd
