VectorDirection


Module: FoundationLite

Computes the direction angle of a vector as an angle in range the from 0 to 360.

Name Type Description
Input value inVector Vector2D
Output value outDirection Real

Description

Note that because of inaccuracies of floating-point arithmetic, some geometric operations (including this one) may lead to unpredictable results for degenerated cases. In this filter such a case occurs when a zero vector is given on input.

Examples

VectorDirection performed on a vector with parameters: DeltaX = 10, DeltaY = 10.
outDirection returns 45.

Complexity Level
