Description Usage Arguments Details Value
This function calculates the smallest difference between two circularly defined values. Examples from circular variables are (azimuth angle, hour of the day, day of the year)
1 | circular_variable_difference(value1,value2,values_in_full_circle)
|
value1 |
value which is compared against the other value |
value2 |
value which the first value is compared against |
values_in_full_circle |
maximum value for value1 and value2 |
Function call (circular_variable_difference(10,350,360)) gives 20 degrees as the result: 10 degrees is 20 degrees more compared to 350 degrees, not 340 degrees less.
smallest difference for the value1 compared against value2
