+- ϕ is the polar angle (the colatitude) 0 is North Pole, π is South Pole
 
 There are two major conventions for spherical coordinate notation.
 
 In physics books:
 
-(ρ, θ, φ) gives the radial distance, polar angle (latitude), and azimuthal angle (longitude)
+(ρ, θ, φ) gives the radial distance, polar angle (colatitude), and azimuthal angle (longitude)
 
 In mathematics books:
 
-(ρ, θ , φ ) gives the radial distance, azimuthal angle (longitude), and polar angle (latitude)
+(ρ, θ , φ ) gives the radial distance, azimuthal angle (longitude), and polar angle (colatitude)
 
 So we're using the mathematics one here.
