Type for representing directions, polymorphic in vector space
Synopsis
- data Direction v n
- _Dir :: Iso' (Direction v n) (v n)
- direction :: v n -> Direction v n
- dir :: v n -> Direction v n
- fromDirection :: (Metric v, Floating n) => Direction v n -> v n
- fromDir :: (Metric v, Floating n) => Direction v n -> v n
- angleBetweenDirs :: (Metric v, Floating n, Ord n) => Direction v n -> Direction v n -> Angle n
- dirBetween :: (Additive v, Num n) => Point v n -> Point v n -> Direction v n
Documentation
A vector is described by a Direction
and a magnitude. So we
can think of a Direction
as a vector that has forgotten its
magnitude. Direction
s can be used with fromDirection
and the
lenses provided by its instances.

_Dir :: Iso' (Direction v n) (v n) Source #
_Dir is provided to allow efficient implementations of functions in particular vector-spaces, but should be used with care as it exposes too much information.
direction :: v n -> Direction v n Source #
direction v
is the direction in which v
points. Returns an
unspecified value when given the zero vector as input.
fromDirection :: (Metric v, Floating n) => Direction v n -> v n Source #
fromDirection d
is the unit vector in the direction d
.
