(** Type for coordinates in 3D space.
All operations on points are done in atomic units. Therefore,
all coordinates are given in {!Bohr.t} and manipulated with this
module.

type t = Bohr.t
type axis = X | Y | Z
val bohr_to_angstrom : Bohr.t -> Angstrom.t
(** Converts a point in Bohr to Angstrom. *)
val angstrom_to_bohr : Angstrom.t -> Bohr.t
(** Converts a point in Angstrom to Bohr. *)
val zero : Bohr.t
(** [zero = { Bohr.x = 0. ; y=0. ; z=0. }] *)
val get : axis -> Bohr.t -> float
(** Extracts the projection of the coordinate on an axis.
Example:
[Coordinate.(get Y) { Bohr.x=1. ; y=2. ; z=3. } -> 2.]

val ( |. ) : float -> Bohr.t -> Bohr.t
(** Scale by a float.
Example:
[ 2. |. { Bohr.x=1. ; y=2. ; z=3. } -> { Bohr.x=2. ; y=4. ; z=6. } ]

val ( |+ ) : Bohr.t -> Bohr.t -> Bohr.t
(** Add two vectors.
Example:

val ( |- ) : Bohr.t -> Bohr.t -> Bohr.t
(** Subtract two vectors.
Example:
