angledim - Convert angles units

Note   The angledim function has been replaced by four, more specific, functions: fromRadians, fromDegrees, toRadians, and toDegrees. However, angledim will be maintained for backward compatibility. The functions deg2rad, rad2deg, and unitsratio provide additional alternatives.

Syntax

angleOut = angledim(angleIn,from,to)

Description

angleOut = angledim(angleIn,from,to) returns the value of the input angle angleIn, which is in units specified by the valid angle units string from, in the desired units given by the valid angle units string to. Angle units strings are 'degrees' for "decimal" degrees or 'radians' for radians

Example

Convert from degrees to radians:

angledim(23.45134,'degrees','radians')

ans =
    0.4093
