lorentz: The Lorentz Transform in Relativistic Physics

The Lorentz transform in special relativity; also the gyrogroup structure of three-velocities. Performs active and passive transforms and has the ability to use units in which the speed of light is not unity. Includes some experimental functionality for celerity and rapidity. For general relativity, see the 'schwarzschild' package.
