giant.catalogues.utilities.RAD2DEG¶
- giant.catalogues.utilities.RAD2DEG: float = 57.29577951308232¶
This constant converts from units of radians to units of degrees through multiplication.
That is
angle_deg = angle_rad*RAD2DEG
whereangle_rad
is the angle in radians andangle_deg
is the angle in degrees.Mathematically this is \(\frac{180}{\pi}\).
