Description: # Simple Quaternions (`squaternion`)
        
        Generally I don't need all of the capabilities (or complexity) of `quaternion`
        math libraries. Basically I just need a way to convert between Euler and
        Quaternion representations and have a nice way to print them out.
        
        ## Install
        
          pip install squaternion
        
        ## Usage
        
        This is all this library does, convert between Euler angles and Quaternions.
        There are other libraries that do so much more ... but I don't need all of that.
        
        ```python
        from squaternion import euler2quat, quat2euler, Quaternion
        
        # if you know the values you want Quaternion(w, x, y, z), note this is a
        # namedtuple so it is immutable once created
        q = Quaternion(1,0,0,0)
        
        # however you typically don't think in 4 dimensions, so create from
        # euler angles euler2quat(roll, pitch, yaw), default is radians, but set
        # degrees true if giving degrees
        q = euler2quat(0, -90, 100, degrees=True)
        
        # can get the euler angles back out in degrees (set to True)
        e = quat2euler(*q, degrees=True)
        ```
