Tolerance.is_angle_zero

Tolerance.is_angle_zero(a, tol=None)

Check if an angle is close enough to zero to be considered zero.

Parameters:

afloat

The angle in radians.

tolfloat, optional

The absolute tolerance. Default is None, in which case self.angular is used.

Returns:

bool

True if the angle is small enough to be considered zero. False otherwise.

Examples

>>> tol = Tolerance()
>>> tol.is_zero_angle(1e-07)
True
>>> tol.is_zero_angle(1e-05)
False
