[yt-dev] Loading data in spherical polar coordinates

[Cameron Hummels]

There are some potentially-helpful commands in "math_utils.py", although
they aren't loaded by default into the api when you "from yt.mods import
*", so you'll have to load them individually.

go to yt-i386/src/yt-hg/yt/utilities/math_utils.py and poke around.

You can load them as per:

import yt.utilities.math_utilities as mu
mu.get_sph_phi()   # or whatever command in math_utilities.py

There is some documentation in line in the code, which may provide help,
but it isn't comprehensive so if you have any questions, please write to
the list.
