Map and Table Calculation

RADDEG( ) function

Converts radians to degrees, i.e. (Value*360/2p) MOD 360.

Syntax

RADDEG(Value)

Input

Output

Note:

When the input value is undefined, the output will also be undefined.

Tips:

• The RADDEG function is often used in combination with trigonometric functions such as SIN, ASIN, etc.
• When the definition symbol = is used, a dependent output map or dependent output column is created; when the assignment symbol := is used, the dependency link is immediately broken after the output map/column has been calculated.

Usable in

MapCalc, TabCalc, Simple calculators

Examples

Pocket line calculator examples:

MapCalc example:

OutMap = RADDEG(InMap)

TabCalc example:

OutCol = RADDEG(InCol)

Applied example:

When you wish to convert slope values in percentages (Sloppct) to degrees (Slopdeg), use the following expression:

Slopedeg = RADDEG(ATAN(Slopepct/100))
