== Singularities ==

One must be aware of singularities in the Euler angle parametrization when the pitch approaches <math>\pm 90^o</math> (north/south pole). These cases must be handled specially.

Code to handle the singularities is derived on this site: [http://www.euclideanspace.com/maths/geometry/rotations/conversions/quaternionToEuler/ www.euclideanspace.com]
