PathAverageTurnAngle


Header: AVL.h
Namespace: avl
Module: FoundationPro

Computes the average absolute turn angle of a path per unit of length.

Syntax

C++
C#
 
void avl::PathAverageTurnAngle
(
	const avl::Path& inPath,
	float& outAverageTurnAngle
)

Parameters

Name Type Default Description
Input value inPath const Path& Input path
Output value outAverageTurnAngle float&

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.

Errors
