rectint - Rectangle intersection area
Syntax
area = rectint(A,B)
Description
area = rectint(A,B) returns the
area of intersection of the rectangles specified by position vectors A and B.
If A and B each specify one rectangle,
the output area is a scalar.
A and B can also be matrices,
where each row is a position vector. area is then a matrix
giving the intersection of all rectangles specified by A with
all the rectangles specified by B. That is,
if A is n-by-4 and B is m-by-4,
then area is an n-by-m matrix
where area(i,j) is the intersection area of the rectangles
specified by the ith row of A and the jth
row of B.
Note
A position vector is a four-element vector [x,y,width,height],
where the point defined by x and y specifies
one corner of the rectangle, and width and height define
the size in units along the x and y axes respectively. |
