coo.rotate.center: Rotates a list or matrix of coordinates with any center of symmetry.

Description

coo.rotate.center rotates (counter-clockwise) coo with a theta angle (in radians) and with the center of symmetry specified by center .

Usage

coo.rotate.center(coo, theta, center=c(0, 0))

Arguments

coo

A list or a matrix of coordinates.

theta

numeric. The angle to rotate the shape.

center

Value

• A list with x; y components or a a matrix of (x; y)coordinates.

Details
