Are there build-in functions in R for the conversion of radians to degree and degree to radians?
So far I wrote my one own functions:
rad2deg <- function(rad) {(rad * 180) / (pi)}
deg2rad <- function(deg) {(deg * pi) / (180)}
#test:
rad2deg(pi) #180
rad2deg(2*pi) #360
deg2rad(180) #pi
The comment of Pascal was very useful and I found several ones, e.g.
install.packages("NISTunits", dependencies = TRUE)
library(NISTunits)
NISTdegTOradian(180)
NISTradianTOdeg(pi)
