treecm (version 1.2.2)

centreOfMassAngle: Returns the angle between CM modulus and the tree weight vector

Description

This function is mainly needed to compute the moment of the tree. The angle is need to compute the projection of the tree weight normal to the CM modulus

Usage

centreOfMassAngle(object)

Arguments

object

an object of CM class

Value

a real number in radians
