PDF::Math

Encapsulate some of the mathematical calculations that need to be performed when working with PDF documents. All angles in PDF::Writer are measured in degrees, but all angles in PDF documents are in radians. The standard conversions between radians, degrees, and gradians are provided.

As with the Perl implementations of these conversions, they will be wrapped in the range of the target measurement (0..PI2 for radians, 0..360 for degrees, and 0..400 for gradians). To prevent this wrapping, provide a false value for the wrap parameter.

To wrap these values manually, use rad2rad, deg2deg, or grad2grad.

Constants

DG

One degree of arc, measured in terms of gradians.

DR

One degree of arc measured in terms of radians.

GD

One gradian of arc, measured in terms of degrees.

GR

One gradian of arc, measured in terms of radians.

PI2
RD

One radian of arc, measured in terms of degrees.

RG

One radian of arc, measured in terms of gradians.

Public Class Methods

deg2deg(deg) click to toggle source

Wrap degree values within the range of degrees (0..360).

# File lib/pdf/math.rb, line 51
def deg2deg(deg)
  remt(deg, 360)
end
deg2grad(deg, wrap = true) click to toggle source

Convert degrees to gradians. The value will be constrained to the range of gradians (0..400) unless wrap is false.

# File lib/pdf/math.rb, line 70
def deg2grad(deg, wrap = true)
  grad = DG * deg
  grad = grad2grad(grad) if wrap
  grad
end
deg2rad(deg, wrap = true) click to toggle source

Convert degrees to radians. The value will be constrained to the range of radians (0..PI2) unless wrap is false.

# File lib/pdf/math.rb, line 62
def deg2rad(deg, wrap = true)
  rad = DR * deg
  rad = rad2rad(rad) if wrap
  rad
end
grad2deg(grad, wrap = true) click to toggle source

Convert gradians to degrees. The value will be constrained to the range of degrees (0..360) unless wrap is false.

  deg = deg2deg(deg) if wrap
  deg
end

end
grad2rad(grad, wrap = true) click to toggle source

Convert gradians to radians. The value will be constrained to the range of radians (0..PI2) unless wrap is false.

# File lib/pdf/math.rb, line 102
def grad2rad(grad, wrap = true)
  rad = GR * grad
  rad = rad2rad(rad) if wrap
  rad
end
rad2deg(rad, wrap = true) click to toggle source

# File lib/pdf/math.rb, line 78
def rad2deg(rad, wrap = true)
  deg = RD * rad
  deg = deg2deg(deg) if wrap
  deg
end
rad2grad(rad, wrap = true) click to toggle source

Convert radians to gradians. The value will be constrained to the range of gradians (0..400) unless wrap is false.

# File lib/pdf/math.rb, line 86
def rad2grad(rad, wrap = true)
  grad = RG * rad
  grad = grad2grad(grad) if wrap
  grad
end
rad2rad(rad) click to toggle source
