pol2cart

Transforms polar or cylindrical coordinates to Cartesian.

Syntax

  • [x, y] = pol2cart(theta, rho)

  • [x, y, z] = pol2cart(theta, rho, z)

Input argument

  • theta - a numeric value: Angular coordinate.

  • rho - a numeric value: Radial coordinate.

  • z - a numeric value: Elevation coordinate.

Output argument

  • x - a numeric value (double or single real): Cartesian coordinates

  • y - a numeric value (double or single real): Cartesian coordinates

  • z - a numeric value (double or single real): Cartesian coordinates

Description

pol2cart transforms polar or cylindrical coordinates to Cartesian.
