VectorDirection
Computes the direction angle of a vector as an angle in range the from 0 to 360.
Syntax
C++
C#
void avl::VectorDirection ( const avl::Vector2D& inVector, float& outDirection )
Parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 |
inVector | const Vector2D& | ||
 |
outDirection | float& |
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.
