+ Extract vector/angle form of a unit quaternion Q.

+ Q
+ Unit quaternion describing the rotation.
+
+ *Outputs*
+ AXIS
+ Eigenaxis as a 3-d unit vector `[x, y, z]'.
+
+ ANGLE
+ Rotation angle in radians. The positive direction is
+ determined by the right-hand rule applied to AXIS.

+ -- Function File: Q = rot2q (AXIS, ANGLE)
+ Create unit quaternion Q which describes a rotation of ANGLE
+ radians about the vector AXIS. This function uses the active
+ convention where the vector AXIS is rotated by ANGLE radians. If
+ the coordinate frame should be rotated by ANGLE radians, also
+ called the passive convention, this is equivalent to rotating the
+ AXIS by -ANGLE radians.
+
+ *Inputs*
+ AXIS
+ Vector `[x, y, z]' describing the axis of rotation.
+
+ ANGLE
+ Rotation angle in radians. The positive direction is
+ determined by the right-hand rule applied to AXIS.
+
+ *Outputs*
+ Q
+ Unit quaternion describing the rotation.
+
+ *Example*
+ octave:1> axis = [0, 0, 1];
+ octave:2> angle = pi/4;
+ octave:3> q = rot2q (axis, angle)
