Calculate a Circular Mean

Description

Function to calculate circular mean

Usage

meanCircular(x, max, na.rm = TRUE)

Arguments

x

Numeric or integer values

max

The theoretical maximum (e.g., if degrees, 360)

na.rm

A logical value indicating whether to remove missing values. Defaults to TRUE.

Value

A numeric value with the circular mean.

Examples

meanCircular(c(22:23, 1:2), max = 24)
meanCircular(c(12, 24), max = 24)
meanCircular(c(6, 7, 23), max = 24)
meanCircular(c(6, 7, 21), max = 24)
meanCircular(c(6, 21), max = 24)
meanCircular(c(6, 23), max = 24)
meanCircular(c(.91, .96, .05, .16), max = 1)
meanCircular(c(6, 7, 8, 9), max = 24)
meanCircular(1:3, max = 24)
meanCircular(21:23, max = 24)
meanCircular(c(16, 17, 18, 19), max = 24)
meanCircular(c(355, 5, 15), max = 360)
