polar_to_cart

Version:

Converts 2D or 3D polar data to Cartesian data. This function works element-wise for arrays.

Syntax

[x, y] = polar_to_cart(a, b)
[x, y, z] = polar_to_cart(a, b, c)
Legacy name: pol2cart

a

Angles of the polar data. a is a scalar or an array of any dimension of floating-point or real numbers.

b

Radii of the polar data. b is a scalar or an array of any dimension of floating-point or real numbers of the same shape as a.

c

Heights of the polar data. c is a scalar or an array of any dimension of floating-point or real numbers of the same shape as a.

x

X-coordinates of the Cartesian data. x is an array of the same size as the maximum shape of a, b, and c.

y

Y-coordinates of the Cartesian data. y is an array of the same size as the maximum shape of a, b, and c.

z

Z-coordinates of the 3D Cartesian data. z is an array of the same size as the maximum shape of a, b, and c.

Formulas for Calculating X and Y

MathScript computes x and y according to the following equations:

x = b.*cos(a)

y = b.*sin(a)

[X, Y, Z] = polar_to_cart(1, 1, 1)
