Detailed Description

Class to compute angles.

I define it as a class even if it does not contain anything. The reason is that in the future I would like to extend it to contain options about how the calculation should be done. So, for now use it as Angle a; double angle=a.compute(v1,v2); I know it is a bit misleading. If we really do not need to store "options" inside the Angle class, we can remove it later and write compute as a static function.
