I want to convert radians to degrees with a round off function. The degrees should come between 0-360 for all the radian values.
Say, the value I want to convert is 300(in radians)
So,
300*57.3 = 17190 degrees
No. of rotation on the plane = 17190/360 = 47.75
I wrote a radtodeg function :
radtodeg <- function(rad) {(rad * 180) / (pi)}
radtodeg(300)
How should I round off a degree equivalent to 17190 between 0 to 360.
Anyone with the round off function, please?
Use the modulus operator %%
in your function if you want the answer to be modulo 360 (i.e. always between 0 and 360)
radtodeg <- function(rad) {((rad * 180) / (pi)) %% 360}
radtodeg(pi)
#> [1] 180
radtodeg(2 * pi)
#> [1] 0
radtodeg(3 * pi)
#> [1] 180
radtodeg(17190)
#> [1] 314.4498
