In-place vector normalization.

Convenience function to normalize a vector. Modifies the input argument!

Parameters:

u (ndarray, shape (3, )) – Vector in \(\mathbb{R}^3\).

Returns:

The normalized input vector (not a normalized copy).

Return type:

ndarray, shape (3, )

Note

No error checking (division by zero, input vector shape) is performed.
