FitLineToPoints

Approximates points with a line using the Least Squares method.

Syntax

void fil::FitLineToPoints
(
	const ftl::Array<fil::Point2D>& inPoints,
	ftl::Optional<const fil::Range&> inRange,
	fil::Line2D& outLine,
	ftl::Optional<float&> outError = ftl::NIL
)

Parameters

	Name	Type	Default	Description
	inPoints	const Array<Point2D>&
	inRange	Optional<const Range&>	NIL	Determines which array points take part in fitting process
	outLine	Line2D&
	outError	Optional<float&>	NIL	Sum of the point distances from the output line

Optional Outputs

The computation of following outputs can be switched off by passing value ftl::NIL to these parameters: outError.
