numat(epsa, dpsi, deps)
[SOFA] Returns the matrix of nutation based on the mean obliquity of
the date epsa
(radians) and the nutation components in
longitude dpsi
and obliquity deps
(in
radians), with respect to the equinox and ecliptic of date. The mean
obliquity epsa
must be consistent with the
precession-nutation models from which dpsi
and
deps
were obtained. The three arguments must have the
same dimensions. The result has those same dimensions with two extra
dimensions equal to 3 prefixed.
