\description{
The function hgm.so3nc evaluates the normalization constant for the Fisher
distribution on SO(3).
}
\usage{
hgm.so3nc(x,y,z,t0=0.0,q=0,deg=0)
}
%- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here.
\arguments{
\item{t0}{
It is the initial point to evaluate the series. If it is set to 0.0,
a default value is used.
}
\item{q}{
If it is 1, then the program works in a quiet mode.
}
\item{deg}{
It gives the approximation degree of the power series approximation
of the normalization constant.
If it is 0, a default value is used.
}
}
\details{
A general algorithm to obtain the normalization constant
is given in the reference below.
% please refer to \url{http://www.openxm.org.}
% The function utilizes \code{\link{oxm.matrix_r2tfb}} and
% \code{\link[RCurl]{postForm}}.
}
\value{
The output is double.
