RAD2DEG Radians To Degrees Conversion Function

Section: Mathematical Functions

Usage

Converts the argument array from radians to degrees. The general syntax for its use is 
   y = rad2deg(x)

Note that the output type will be the same as the input type, and that complex arguments are allowed. The output is not wrapped to [0,360).

Examples

Some known conversion factors 
--> rad2deg(1) % one radian is about 57 degrees

ans = 
   57.2958 

--> rad2deg(pi/4) % should be 45 degrees

ans = 
 45 

--> rad2deg(2*pi) % Note that this is 360 not 0 degrees

ans = 
 360
