outAverageTurnAngle Real

Description

The operation measures acuteness of the path turn angles. It is computed as the sum of absolute values of path turn angles at path characteristic points divided by length of the path.

Examples

PathAverageTurnAngle of the sample path equals to 161.57.

PathAverageTurnAngle of the sample path equals to 81.16.
