Hi Developers,
I'm working with geometric stuff now, and before
reinvent the wheel, i feel compeled to ask:
Do you have a function that returns all
the points or coordinates within an arc of
a circle?
Notice for a rectangular area this is
fairly easy, but an area with the shape of an
slice
something like algebra 101...
x1= r * cos(x)
and
y1=r * sin(y)?
OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD... Could be that r = d
r = radius and x y are the coordinates on the axis
and x1 y1 are the points in the arc...
;) a su servicio!
