angle_points
- compas.geometry.angle_points(a, b, c, deg=False)[source]
Compute the smallest angle between the vectors defined by three points.
- Parameters
a (sequence of float) – XYZ coordinates.
b (sequence of float) – XYZ coordinates.
c (sequence of float) – XYZ coordinates.
deg (boolean) – returns angle in degrees if True
- Returns
float – The smallest angle between the vectors in radians (in degrees if deg == True). The angle is always positive.
Notes
The vectors are defined in the following way
u=b−av=c−aZ components may be provided, but are simply ignored.
