branch: master
commit 57e61102fbff2eafb064bd06665b7ab7a5ba353c

    Book: Abbreviation and full name of RA and DEC in vector column sec.
    
    Until now, in 'Vector columns' section RA was written in abbreviation form,
    while DEC was written in full name form.
    
    With this commit, in this section for RA and DEC in first paragraph both of
    abbreviation and full form is written.

 In its most common format, each column of a table only has a single value in 
each row.
-For example, we usually have one column for the magnitude, another column for 
the RA and yet another column for the Declination of a set of galaxies/stars 
(where each galaxy is represented by one row in the table).
+For example, we usually have one column for the magnitude, another column for 
the RA (Right Ascension) and yet another column for the DEC (Declination) of a 
set of galaxies/stars (where each galaxy is represented by one row in the 
table).
 This common single-valued column format is sufficient in many scenarios.
 However, in some situations (like those below) it would help to have multiple 
values for each row in each column, not just one.
