deg2rad: Degrees to Radians

Description

Transforms between angles in degrees and radians.

Usage

deg2rad(deg)
rad2deg(rad)

Arguments

deg
(array of) angles in degrees.
rad
(array of) angles in radians.

Value

  • The angle in degrees or radians.

Details

This is a simple calculation back and forth. Note that angles greater than 360 degrees are allowed and will be returned. This may appear incorrect but follows a corresponding discussion on Matlab Central.

Examples

Run this code
deg2rad(c(0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90))
rad2deg(seq(-pi/2, pi/2, length = 19))
