Magnetic field of right-rectangular prisms in Cartesian coordinates

Compute the component(s) of the magnetic field vector generated by
a collection of prisms on a set of observation points.

.. important::

The component(s) of the magnetic field are returned in :math:`nT`.

Returns
-------
magnetic_field : array or tuple of arrays
Array with the computed magnetic field on every observation point.
Computed magnetic field on every observation point in :math:`nT`.
If ``field`` is set to a single component, then a single array with the
computed magnetic field component will be returned.
If ``field`` is set to ``"b"``, then a tuple containing the three
components of the magnetic vector will be returned in the following
order: ``b_e``, ``b_n``, ``b_u``.
