* Space before colons in eos_utils.py help messages

* Enable extrapolation in eos_utils.py when NS is out of bounds

* Same check on shape in primary_mass and secondary mass

* Function to swap masses and spins of object 1 and object2

* Allow user to request for remnant_mass calculations: 1) extrapolation, 2) swapping object 1 and object 2 if mass2 > mass1, 3) treat as a (dark) BBH and NSBH with NS mass greater than a value probided by the user

* Renamned swap_companions to ensure_obj1_is_primary and generalized it

* codeclimate

* codeclimate

* Fixed line that was too long

* Fixed docstring and using keywords explicitly in all remnant_mass_* calls

* Renamed max_ns_mass as ns_bh_mass_boundary and improved help messages of functions

* Improved docstings

* Comprehensions in pycbc_brute_bank

* Complying to naming convention for spin components in spherical coordinates

* Update conversions.py

Fixing single code climate complaint.

`PyCBC <http://pycbc.org>`_ is a software package used to explore astrophysical sources of gravitational waves. It contains algorithms to analyze gravitational-wave data from the LIGO and Virgo detectors, detect coalescing compact binaries, and measure the astrophysical parameters of detected sources. PyCBC was used in the `first direct detection of gravitational waves <https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.061102>`_ and is used in the flagship analysis of LIGO and Virgo data.

PyCBC is developed collaboratively and lead by a team of GW astronomers with the aim to build accessible tools for gravitational-wave data analysis. One of the easiest ways to get a full software environment is by `downloading one of our docker images. <http://pycbc.org/pycbc/latest/html/docker.html>`_

Some interactive examples using portions of the PyCBC library are also hosted as jupyter notebooks on Microsoft Azure. `Feel free to give them a try. <https://notebooks.azure.com/nitz/libraries/pycbc>`_  You can also explore the `full documentation pages <http://pycbc.org/pycbc/latest/html/index.html>`_ or the `source code on GitHub. <https://github.com/gwastro/pycbc>`_ 

If you use PyCBC in scientific publications, please see our `citation guidelines. <http://pycbc.org/pycbc/latest/html/credit.html>`_
