function ry = vecroty(angle)
% 
% VECROTY: Transformation matrix for a rotation around the y axis. 
% 
% Calling Sequence:
% 
%   ry = vecroty(angle);
% 
% INPUT:
% 
%   angle		: rotation angle defined in radians
% 
% OUTPUT:
%
%   ry		: (4x4) Transformation matrix.
% 
% 
% Description:
% 
%   Return the (4x4) Transformation matrix for a rotation about the y axis
%   by the defined angle.
% 
%   The matrix is:
% 
%         [  cos(angle)       0        sin(angle)       0]
%         [      0            1            0            0]
%         [ -sin(angle)       0        cos(angle)       0]
%         [      0            0            0            1]
% 
% Examples:
% 
%    Rotate the NURBS line (0.0 0.0 0.0) - (3.0 3.0 3.0) by 45 degrees
%    around the y-axis
% 
%    line = nrbline([0.0 0.0 0.0],[3.0 3.0 3.0]);
%    trans = vecroty(%pi/4);
%    rline = nrbtform(line, trans);
