Computes the diameter of an object such as a two-dimensional window
or three-dimensional box.
Usage
diameter(x)
Arguments
x
A window or other object whose diameter will be computed.
Value
The numerical value of the diameter of the object.
Details
This function computes the diameter of an object
such as a two-dimensional window or a three-dimensional box.
The diameter is the maximum distance
between any two points in the object.
The function diameter is generic, with methods for
the class "owin" (two-dimensional windows),
"box3" (three-dimensional boxes) and
"boxx" (multi-dimensional boxes).
