Description
Note that because of inaccuracies of floating-point arithmetic, some geometric operations (including this one) may lead to unpredictable results for degenerated cases. In this filter such a case occurs when a zero vector is given on input.
Examples
 |
VectorDirection performed on a vector with parameters: DeltaX = 10, DeltaY = 10.
outDirection returns 45.
