summaryNetDisplacement: Calculate net displacement

In wittja01/ballr: Analyze Data Generated from Syntech Servosphere Trials

Description

Calculate the net displacement for a path taken by an organism

Usage

summaryNetDisplacement(list, summary.df = NA)

Arguments

list	A list of data frames, each of which has a column representing dx and dy.
summary.df	The data frame object within which you are storing path summary variables. The default is NA if you do not currently have a summary data frame object started. When set to NA the function will create a new summary data frame. When an object is provided, the function will merge the summary data frame with the new data.

Details

Net displacement is the distance between the start of a path and the end of a path. This function calculates the net displacement for a path recorded from the servosphere.

Value

A named vector of numbers where each number corresponds to the net displacement of a movement path. The numbers are ordered and named as they are in the data frames list.
