summary.Planes {pcds}

Return a summary of a Planes object

Description

Returns the below information about the object:

call of the function defining the object, the defining 3D points, selected x, y, and z points on the plane, equation of the plane, and coefficients of the plane.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'Planes'
summary(object, ...)

Arguments

object

An object of class Planes.

...

Additional parameters for summary.

Value

The call of the object of class "Planes", the defining 3D points, selected x, y, and z points on the plane, equation of the plane, and coefficients of the plane (in the form: z = A*x + B*y + C).
