Euler Angles
There are many conventions for how to define Euler angles, based on choices of which of the x,y,z axis to use in what order and whether the rotation axis is in the body frame (and hence affected by previous rotations) or in in a fixed frame. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_between_quaternions_and_Euler_angles for a general description. All Euler angles are specified in radians. The names are all `rotation_from_{fixed/body}_abc()` where abc is the ordering of x,y,z.
Rotation3D	get_rotation_from_fixed_xyz (double xr, double yr, double zr)
	Initialize a rotation in x-y-z order from three angles.

Rotation3D get_rotation_from_fixed_xyz	(	double	xr,
		double	yr,
		double	zr
	)			`[related]`

Initialize a rotation in x-y-z order from three angles.

Parameters:

`[in]`	xr	Rotation around the X axis in radians
`[in]`	yr	Rotation around the Y axis in radians
`[in]`	zr	Rotation around the Z axis in radians

Note:: The three rotations are represented in the original (fixed) coordinate frame.
