Air density calculation

This function calculates the density of the air

Description

This function calculates the air-density based on the papers:

1)'Equation for the Determination of the Density of Moist Air'
P.Giacomo, Metrologia 18, 33-40 (1982)

2)'Equation for the Determination of the Density of Moist Air'
R.S. Davis Metrologia 29, 67-70 (1992)

Parameters:
   t = ambient temperature (ºC)
  hr = relative humidity [%]
   p = ambient pressure [Pa]

Why not vectorize it so you can put in a list of numbers? (simply use .* instead of * etc.)
Why is f0 in the argument list?
The help should mention what "ro" is and in what units it is expressed.
End the calculations with a semi-colon to suppress the display.
For some (most) values ro is negative? Can that be true?
You should check for unphysical inputs (e.g., hr>100%).

Good work! Although the difference is minor, the correct conversion between degrees Celsius and Kelvin is:

t90 / °C = T90/K - 273.15
