""" Returns a string representation of the angle.
Parameters
----------
units : str
Specifies the units, value should be one of the allowed units values (see: `Angle`)
decimal : bool
Specifies whether to return a sexagesimal representation (e.g. a tuple
(hours, minutes, seconds)), or decimal
sep : str
The separator between numbers in a sexagesimal representation, e.g. 12:41:11.1241
where the separator is ":". Also accepts 2 or 3 separators, e.g. 12h41m11.1241s would be sep="hms",
or 11-21:17.124 would be sep="-:"
